After the meeting of Bihar's two political parties RJD and RLSP chief Lalu Prasad Yadav and Upendra Kushwaha, a period of speculation has started in political corridors. RLSP is a part of the BJP-led NDA. Upendra Kushwaha is a minister in the Narendra Modi government.

RLSP was the BJP's partner in the 2014 Lok Sabha elections and the 2015 Legislative Assembly election. Lalu and Upendra met on Monday (October 16).

A leader of RJD told the news agency, IANS that the two leaders discussed the possibilities related to the 2019 Lok Sabha elections. However, no leader has officially said anything on this meeting.

In August this year, JD-U chief Nitish Kumar broke the alliance with RJD and Congress and joined hands with BJP. While the assembly elections of 2015 with JDU, RJD and Congress fought together, the coalition of these parties broke up almost 20 months later.

The BJP may have got its old partner back in Bihar, but with the return of Nitish in the NDA, it started discussions about Upendra Kushwaha's resentment.

It is believed that Upendra Kushwaha views Nitish as his rival and does not want to be with him.

RLSP leader Nagmani has given a signal two days back, saying this by changing the politics of Bihar that Upendra Kushwaha should be the next Chief Minister of Bihar.

It is believed that Kushwaha was lagging behind such possibilities with Lalu Yadav. It is a discussion that if the RJD and Congress are ready to make Kushwaha the Chief Ministerial candidate then the breakdown of the NDA is certain.
