PATNA, JULY 7: The Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) today announced that it would have no alliance with the ruling RJD during the ensuing Lok Sabha polls in Bihar.
“We will also not firm up poll tie with either BJP or Congress in the state”, NCP general secretary Tariq Anwar told reporters here.
Anwar said the NCP was firm in its resolve to rid the people of the state of the “corrupt, ineffective and incompetent” RJD dispensation.
He said his party would launch an agitation against the misdeeds of the ruling party in Bihar.
NCP president Sharad Pawar said Bihar was defamed for the fodder scam in which RJD president Laloo Prasad Yadav was also an accused.
“Bihar has been looted, poverty-level increased, law and order collapsed during the Laloo-Rabri regimes,” Pawar said adding the NCP would strive for bringing “better administration” in the state which had produced leaders like former President Rajendra Prasad and Bharat Ratna Lok Nayak Jaiprakash Narayan.
“We have to free the people fromcorruption, anarchy and chaos prevailing in the state,” he said.
Pawar and Anwar arrived here from New Delhi to attend the first state level conference of the NCP.
