Former MP Anand Mohan has publicly questioned Union Minister Chirag Paswan's loyalty to the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) following Bihar’s by-election results. In a social media post, Anand Mohan alleged that Paswan failed to campaign for NDA ally Jitan Ram Manjhi’s family in Imamganj, raising doubts about his political intentions.
Mohan’s son, Shivhar MLA Chetan Anand, also joined the fray, accusing Paswan of selective campaigning and maintaining connections with Prashant Kishor’s Jan Suraj initiative. Both leaders emphasized the alliance’s unity and criticized Paswan’s inconsistent approach, recalling the cordial relationship their families shared in the past.
Despite NDA’s clean sweep in the by-elections, these allegations have sparked fresh debates within the coalition. Anand Mohan’s sharp remarks suggest underlying tensions, as he questioned Paswan’s adherence to coalition ethics.
As Bihar politics heats up, the Anand Mohan-Chirag Paswan exchange reflects growing challenges in maintaining alliance unity. The coming days may see efforts to address these fissures or deepen the divide.
