Imphal. Bihar CM Nitish Kumar got a big blow on Friday. 5 MLAs of his party JDU joined BJP in Manipur. BJP is ruling in Manipur. After 5 MLAs switched to BJP, now only one JDU MLA is left in the state. The names of the MLAs who joined BJP are KH Joykishan, Mohd Achbauddin, N Sanate, Thangjam Arun Kumar and AM Khaute. Khaute was the first DGP. The special thing is that Khaute and Thangjam wanted to contest on BJP ticket in the assembly elections held this year. Due to not getting tickets, both of them became MLAs by entering the electoral fray from JDU.
The Speaker has also approved the joining of the five JDU MLAs to the BJP under the 10th Schedule of the Constitution. In Manipur, JDU had fielded candidates on 38 seats in the assembly elections held this year. Of these, 6 won. After leaving Bihar with Nitish, he has been given this blow by the BJP. Nitish has got tremors twice in the last 9 days. On August 25, Teki Kaso, the lone JDU MLA in Arunachal, also joined the BJP. JDU had 7 MLAs earlier in Arunachal. It was the second number party after BJP, but 6 JDU MLAs switched sides to BJP.
After Arunachal, Manipur is also JDU free. Very soon Laluji will make Bihar also JDU free.@ANI @ABPNews @News18India @News18Bihar @ZeeBiharNews
