MLC Elections: Upendra Kushwaha’s first reaction on the announcement of candidate from LJPR, ‘Mathematics we too…’

Adil Hasan, the national spokesperson of Asaduddin Owaisi’s party AIMIM, has fiercely attacked the Muslim leaders of the Grand Alliance on the issue of less amount being presented in the budget for minority welfare. He has said that all the Muslim leaders of RJD and Congress were silent on the budget.

Adil Hasan said that yesterday on Friday, these leaders have betrayed the community on the minority budget in the Legislative Council. By not asking questions, not by raising voice. Be it Abdul Barik Siddiqui or Qari Shoaib, whenever the issue of backward classes and minorities is raised, it is Majlis that stands tall.

Call to ask questions to all parties

He said that you can ask questions, no matter which party the leader belongs to. Ask Majlis also, but also other parties which win with the votes of Muslims but do nothing on their issues. Ask questions on the basis of facts, ask with responsibility, ask to fix responsibility.

‘Don’t say anything about Muslims’

Adil Hasan said that these people only work to abuse AIMIM. You can abuse us with gusto, but also raise the issue of minority in the House. When you take votes from them, then say something in the House for their benefit also. But these people do not say anything on Muslim-Dalit.

All AIMIM MLAs raised issues

He claimed, “All five AIMIM MLAs, including our state president Akhtarul Iman, have raised the issue of minorities in the House. Be it the issue of erosion, education or any other issue, they have raised their voice in the House for their welfare.”

Why are Muslim leaders of RJD-Congress silent – ​​Adil

Adil Hasan said, “But all the Muslim leaders of RJD and Congress remained silent. Jamakhan is a Muslim, but he is a minister in the government, so he cannot say anything. But what has happened to the Muslim leaders of RJD and Congress? They only know how to take minority votes.”

stir in political circles

This statement of Adil Hasan has created a stir in the political circles of Bihar. Now a reaction is expected from the leaders of the Grand Alliance. There is a serious allegation against the opposition parties that they take votes of minorities but do not raise their voice in the House on their issues.

Chief Minister Nitish Kumar got angry on Rabri Devi in ​​Bihar Legislative Council on Monday (February 09, 2026). They Told the Chairman to take action against those creating ruckus. Nitish Kumar said, did everyone know anything? Have you done any work? These people were there for 15 years…did not do any work. Look today how much work has been done in 20 years.”

In fact, as soon as the proceedings of Bihar Legislative Council started on Monday, there was a huge uproar. Under the leadership of Rabri Devi, women MLCs of RJD raised slogans in the House regarding law and order. CM Nitish Kumar got enraged after the opposition sloganeering.

Speaking in the House, Nitish Kumar said, “She is speaking three times… listen…”. His reference was towards Munni Rajak, Rabri Devi and Urmila Thakur. Asked them whether work has been done for women? Regarding Rabri Devi, Nitish Kumar said, “This is a girl… her husband stepped away… after a few days, she (Rabri) was made the CM.”

Opposition leaders did not calm down even after being told by the Chairman

Nitish Kumar said that these people have not done any work. All the work is being done by our government. During this time the opposition kept creating ruckus. The Chairman asked the opposition to sit down when the Chief Minister is speaking. However, the opposition leaders were not ready to listen.

The opposition kept creating ruckus and CM Nitish Kumar kept saying his views. He further said, “Bihar is progressing so much. There is support from the Central Government. Because of this, Bihar is progressing so much. Till date, you people (opposition) have not done any work. Is this some way…”

On the other hand, MLC Sunil Singh raised slogans against Home Minister Samrat Chaudhary in the House. He also demanded his resignation in front of Nitish Kumar.

Upendra Kushwaha’s son Deepak Prakash has also got a place in Nitish Kumar’s new cabinet in Bihar. Deepak Prakash himself told that he was not ready for this. He had arrived in jeans, shirt and slippers. Shortly before the start of the ceremony, he was told that he had to take the oath of office as a minister. That’s why he was not even prepared.

Deepak Prakash was made a minister without becoming an MLA and without contesting elections. Nitish Kumar’s other 25 ministers arrived in traditional attire, but Deepak Prakash took oath wearing jeans and shirt only. Meanwhile, a big discussion also started that how will Deepak Prakash be made MLA?

JDU or BJP, who will sacrifice?

It is certain that Upendra Kushwaha’s son Deepak Prakash has to be sent to the Legislative Council, but the question arises how? According to the rules, it is necessary for him to become an MLA within 6 months of becoming a minister. In such a situation, from which party he will be made MLC is a matter of discussion. JDU or BJP…who will sacrifice his seat for Deepak Prakash?

The term of these MLAs is ending

The term of 6 MLAs of the Legislative Council is ending next year. The names of four of these are- Ashok Chaudhary-(JDU), Sanjay Singh-(JDU), Nivedita Singh (BJP), Rajendra Gupta (BJP). Political experts believe that it is not easy for Deepak Prakash to ask for JDU quota seat from Nitish Kumar, hence it is possible that BJP may give a seat from its quota to the RLM leader.

What did Deepak Prakash say after becoming minister?

Deepak Prakash spoke to the media after taking oath and said, “Thanks to Upendra Kushwaha and the party workers for the opportunity given to him. I am very overwhelmed with the opportunity to work under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister Nitish Kumar. I have got the opportunity to serve the public, I am now realizing the responsibility that has fallen on my shoulders. I am determined to fulfill that responsibility.”
