WATCH: Jayant Chaudhary Confirms Alliance With BJP, “Hard To Refuse”

NEW DELHI: Jayant Chaudhary, leader of the RLD, confirmed the party’s alliance with the BJP in Uttar Pradesh for the upcoming 2024 Lok Sabha election on Friday.

This confirmation came shortly after the posthumous honor of the Bharat Ratna was bestowed upon his grandfather, former Prime Minister Chaudhary Charan Singh. When questioned about the alliance reports, Chaudhary expressed his difficulty in declining the offer.

“I find it hard to refuse the offer now,” remarked Chaudhary. He went on to acknowledge, “Modi Ji’s vision has accomplished what no other party has managed to achieve thus far.”

This development is perceived as a setback to the Opposition INDIA bloc. Under the terms of the seat-sharing agreement, the RLD will contest two Lok Sabha seats, Baghpat and Bijnor, and has also secured a Rajya Sabha seat.

With Jayant Chaudhary’s RLD holding influence in specific pockets of western Uttar Pradesh, particularly among the influential Jat community, the BJP aims to capitalize on this support in the upcoming election.
