PATNA: In an apparent blow to Ram Vilas Paswan’s LJP, its national vice-president and parliamentary board chief Ranjan Prasad Yadav on Sunday joined the ruling JD(U), along with hundreds of supporters. Miffed over Paswan’s intention to form electoral ties with Lalu Prasad’s RJD, Yadav joined the ruling party in presence of Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and party’s national president Sharad Yadav and several other party functionaries.
Mr Yadav, also chief patron of the organisation Bihar Yadav Jagran Manch, announced merger of the entire state-unit with the JD(U) and claimed that thousands of supporters who assembled at the place also joined the party.
Welcoming him into their party fold, the Chief Minister said the party has received a shot in arm with the former Rajya Sabha member joining the party. - PTI
