The Congress has sidelined the RJD supremo after the drubbing of RJD in he LS polls. The RJD could get only 4 seats as compared to 20 plus seats it had in the previous parliament. Some section of Bihar Congress leadership is against to have RJD in the new UPA alliance. Mr. Lalu’s track record as Railway minister for the past five years was excellent. The RJD chief has defended the UPA alliance many a time when it was facing difficult situation including the nuclear deal. He has regretted the decision of his party not forging a pre-poll alliance with the Congress. Mr.Lalu is a quick learner and he will re-establish his roots with voters of Bihar in the coming days and emerge stronger. Keeping in mind the of long term association he had with the Congress, the Congress should accommodate in the ministry.
