BJP accuses the JDU of Misusing Post Of Assembly Speaker

Bihar Political crisisThe BJP has alleged that the JDU is misusing the chair of Bihar Assembly Speaker to be in power and also play the role of the opposition party. Uday Narain Choudhary, the speaker of the Bihar assembly is said to be close to Nitish Kumar camp of the JDU.   

"The JDU is accusing the BJP of misusing the office of the Governor. But the JDU is misusing the office of the Speaker. The Speaker's post has its dignity. But the way the Speaker is behaving in the Assembly by addressing the Leader of Opposition Nand Kishore Yadav in a letter as BJP leader in the House. We oppose this, as when was it decided that Nand Kishore Yadav is not the Leader of Opposition," Shahnawaz Hussain of the BJP said.


Shahnawaz Hussain also raised his finger at the constitutional jurisdiction of the speaker of the house to bequeth the JDU with the powers of both the party in power and the party in opposition. "Does the Speaker have the right to give one party the power as well as opposition? The BJP is opposing this," he said.

Hussain also ridiculed the JDU, BJP's arch rivals in the state, for parading and proving his majority in the Rashtrapati Bhawan and not the in the Bihar assembly. "First, it should be proved on the floor as to who has the majority. Is it Nitish Kumar or Manjhi ji? And this can be decided neither in the road nor in the lawns of the Rashtrapati Bhavan."  

Yesterday the JDU suspended seven of its own MLAs ahead of the 20 February trial of strength for him on the floor of the Bihar Assembly.


The BJP has chosen to remain absent from the all-party meeting called by the speaker, and has alleged the Assembly Speaker of favoring Nitish Kumar
