Bihar’s main opposition party RJD on Monday said it will boycott the oath-taking ceremony of Nitish Kumar as chief minister, claiming the mandate in the elections was “against the NDA” which has been changed by a “fraud”. Kumar is scheduled to take oath as chief minister for the seventh time in Raj Bhavan this evening.
“The RJD boycotts oath-taking ceremony of this puppet government. The mandate is for a change, and against the (ruling) NDA. The peoples verdict has been changed by the ruler’s order,” the RJD alleged in a tweet. “Ask the unemployed, the farmer, the contract worker and teacher as to what they are going through. People are angry with NDAs fraud. We are public representatives and we stand with people,” it said.
राजद शपथ ग्रहण का बायकॉट करती है। बदलाव का जनादेश NDA के विरुद्ध है। जनादेश को 'शासनादेश' से बदल दिया गया। बिहार के बेरोजगारों,किसानो,संविदाकर्मियों, नियोजित शिक्षकों से पूछे कि उनपर क्या गुजर रही है।NDA के फर्ज़ीवाड़े से जनता आक्रोशित है। हम जनप्रतिनिधि है और जनता के साथ खड़े है— Rashtriya Janata Dal (@RJDforIndia) November 16, 2020
The RJD, which emerged as the single largest party in Bihar with 75 seats, also claimed the state is getting a “helpless government by the two helpless parties”. Attacking Kumar, it said Bihar will have a “Chief Minister who has been proven weak, idle and corrupt. And a senior partner (BJP) who has no (chief ministerial) face and is forced to resort to dubious means (for earning majority)”.
बिहार में दो मजबूरों की मजबूर सरकार बन रही है!एक शक्तिविहीन, शिथिल और भ्रष्ट प्रमाणित हो चुके मजबूर CM!
दूसरा चेहराविहीन और तन्त्र प्रपन्च को मजबूर वरिष्ठ घटक दल!
इनकी मजबूरी हैं-१) राजद का जनाधार!
और
२) @yadavtejashwi को अपना सर्वाधिक प्रिय नेता स्वीकार कर चुका बिहार!

“Their helplessness are 1. People’s support for the RJD 2.Tejashwi Yadav being elected as Bihar’s most popular leader,” it said in the tweet.
The party also took a dig at Kumar’s reported remark at Sunday’s NDA meeting that he did not want to become CM but was insisted by the BJP to continue in the post. “I did not want to become chief minister because my party came third and also I was tired. But, several BJP leaders grabbed my feet, started crying and pleading before me. I, being a soft-hearted, power-hungry mendicant, was moved. How could I annoy them,” the RJD said in a tweet laced with sarcasm.
In the election results for 243 assembly seats announced on November 10, the RJD-led Mahagathbandhan lost to the four parties NDA. The BJP is the largest party within the ruling coalition with 74 seats, followed by JD-U (43) and Vikassheel Insaan Party (VIP) and Hindustani Awam Morcha (HAM) four each.
The BJP had announced before the polls that Kumar will remain chief minister irrespective of which NDA constituent wins the maximum number of seats.
