RJD National Working President Tejashwi Yadav assured that his party has enough support to clinch a Rajya Sabha seat away from the NDA.
RJD and its alliance have 35 MLAs in the Assembly but require the support of 41 MLAs to send its candidate, AD Singh, to the Rajya Sabha.
Tejashwi Yadav said that AIMIM and BSP, which have six seats and one seat respectively, have extended their support for the RJD candidates.
“We are confident. Earlier, the strength of Mahagathbandha was 35. To win, 41 is needed. BJP-NDA needed 3. But we accepted this challenge and chose to fight the BJP, not to cower before them. Colleagues from AIMIM and BSP have supported the RJD candidate. So, the strength now is 41,” he said.
BJP needs the support of three more MLAs for their fifth candidate to be elected.
