Patna: Congress has called a meeting of its legislators on June 15 in Patna to discuss its future course of action after the opposition coordination committee meeting on Thursday in which all the INDI Alliance partners have been asked to submit their lists of seats they wanted to contest in the coming assembly elections to RJD leader Tejashwi Prasad Yadav, who is the coordination committee chairman.All the Congress MLAs will be present in this meeting to be attended by AICC in charge of Bihar, Krishna Allavaru, state party president Rajesh Kumar and other senior leaders.Sources said the Congress legislators will be given responsibilities on the instructions of party leader Rahul Gandhi, who is making efforts to revive and strengthen the party at the grassroots level for the Bihar assembly elections due this year.The meeting assumes significance in the backdrop of the bickering among the alliance partners over the number of seats being demanded by them.The Communist Party of India (CPI) reportedly complained about its ally CPI(ML) in the meeting after their leader Dipankar Bhattacharya said his party wanted 45 seats to contest. RJD, Congress, CPI, CPM, CPI(ML) and VIP are so far the INDIA bloc partners in Bihar.CPI state general secretary Ram Naresh Pandey told this reporter on Friday that the alliance partners had agreed not to make any statements which could create confusion. “Every party will submit its list of seats it wants to contest,” he said on way to Bennipatti to attend a party programme in Madhubani.Vikassheel Insaan Party (VIP) patron Mukesh Sahani raised the seat-sharing issue in the Thursday meeting. VIP spokesperson Dev Jyoti on Friday said the party’s state committee had proposed to contest 60 seats. “But Tejashwi will take a final call,” he said.The Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM), an alliance partner of RJD in the neighbouring state, has already staked its claim on 12 seats in the bordering districts. Though JMM is not a part of the INDIA bloc in Bihar so far, its spokesman Manoj Pandey on Friday said the party has strong public support in 12 Bihar constituencies.RJD spokesman Shakti Singh Yadav, however, dismissed any rift and said since there is an internal democracy in the alliance, everyone is free to express his opinion.Congress, which contested 70 seats last time and won 19, wants to keep the number intact with a few changes in constituencies. Out of the total 243 seats, RJD contested the maximum 144, Congress 70, CPI(ML) 19, CPI 6 and CPM 4 seats. The CPI(ML) had the best strike rate of winning 12 out of the 19 seats it contested. RJD won 75, Congress 19, and CPI-CPM 2 each in 2020.
