New Delhi, June 30: Congress is “not a factor” in Assembly polls in Bihar as the situation in the state is vastly different from that in Uttar Pradesh, which had seen the revival of the ruling party at the Centre, JD(U) chief Sharad Yadav claimed today.
Yadav, who is also the NDA convenor, was upbeat over the prospects of the JD(U)-BJP alliance, which was shaken by the recent row between Bihar Chief Nitish Kumar and his Gujarat counterpart Narendra Modi over flood relief advertisements.
He said the RJD-LJP combine was its main rival in Bihar.
“Congress is not a factor in Bihar. The situation in Bihar is vastly different from that in Uttar Pradesh. Our contest will be with the RJD-LJP combine,” Yadav said in an interview to PTI.
