Tuesday’s congregation at Bihar Congress HQ in Patna saw RLN national vice-president Jitendra Nath Thakur, son Rahul Kumar (state spokesperson), RJD figure Neelam Parveen, and loyalists swear allegiance to the grand old party. It was a calculated move amid intensifying state rivalries.
In-charge Krishna Allavaru and president Rajesh Ram officiated the memberships. Allavaru unleashed criticism, asserting America’s grip tightens on India’s confidential data and resources. The ruling dispensation, he said, is outsourcing IT to farms, gutting the economy while misleading citizens.
Nationwide unrest grips youth and agrarian communities, all pinning hopes on Congress, he observed. Incoming leaders promise amplified advocacy for social fairness.
Focusing locally, Rajesh Ram condemned the regime’s gender insensitivity, burying women under microcredit debts. The NEET mishap reveals BJP’s hand, with cops pressuring the bereaved kin. Women’s torment by finance sharks persists unchecked.
He invoked MGNREGA as Congress’s empowerment tool, now dismantled for BJP’s meager five-kg aid gimmick. Congratulating joiners, he rallied for a robust justice campaign.
Thakur voiced admiration for Rahul Gandhi’s fearless opposition to flawed governance. Eager for deployment, he vowed diligence. In Bihar’s fluid politics, this merger could tip scales toward opposition unity.
