JAMMU, Nov 12: Senior Congress leader and ex-J&K PCC chief Saifuddin Soz has congratulated Janata Dal-United (JD-U) leader Nitish Kumar for the historic win of the Mahagathbandhan (Grand Alliance), which includes Lalu Prasad's RJD and Congress, in the Bihar polls.
While congratulating the grand alliance, he said it was the personal defeat of prime minister Narendra Modi and BJP president Amit Shah.
The Janata Dal-United (JD-U)-led grand alliance on Sunday got a thumping majority in the Bihar polls, crossing the two-third majority mark. It gave Nitish Kumar his third straight victory in Bihar. It was, however, BJP's second straight defeat in state elections since the Aam Aadmi Party routed it in Delhi in February.
Soz hailed the Grand Alliance win, terming it as historic.
Compared to the number of assembly segments it led in the 2014 Lok Sabha election, the BJP lost every second seat. |
