Opposition unity against BJP: Nitish, Lalu meet Sonia Gandhi

Congress chief Sonia Gandhi, Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and Rashtriya Janata Dal chief Lalu Prasad Yadav on Sunday met in Delhi to discuss Opposition unity against the Bharatiya Janata Party for 2024 Lok Sabha elections.

“We both held talks with Sonia Gandhi,” Bihar CM said after the meeting. “We have to unite together and work for the country’s progress. They have their party president elections [on October 17] after which she will speak,” Kumar said.

Lalu Prasad Yadav said that the Opposition needs to remove the saffron party to save India. All the parties need to unite to remove BJP.
