Pappu Yadav supporters and RJD scuffle in Purnea

With incumbent JD(U) MP Santosh Kumar, RJD nominee Bima Bharti, and Pappu Yadav in the race, Purnea is embroiled in a triangular election.

Tensions have arisen in the Purnea Lok Sabha seat in Bihar as a result of confrontations between two candidates’ camps barely two days prior to the polls for the second phase of the general elections scheduled for April 26, 2024.

During a late-night road show on Tuesday, supporters of Independent candidate Rajesh Ranjan, often known as Pappu Yadav, reportedly assaulted cars in Tejashwi Yadav’s cavalcade.

The RJD leader told media on Wednesday, “We have the video footage of the incident, and the onus is on the police administration to look into it,” asserting that approximately 3 lakh votes from the economically disadvantaged class are supporting RJD candidate Bima Bharti.

The RJD leader was doing a 40-kilometer road show with Rajya Sabha MP Manoj Jha, Vikassheel Insaan Party chairman Mukesh Sahni, and other supporters of Pappu Yadav when several demonstrators gathered in front of the cavalcade and began yelling slogans.

“These people have grown jealous out of the increasing popularity of RJD in Seemanchal and hence resort to such activities,” RJD supporters claimed. “Nothing will work this time and the RJD candidate is going to win the seat with a huge margin.”

In a jab at the Janata Dal (United) candidate in Purnea, Tejashwi remarked, “In the rural area, people hardly recognise him by face

“RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav, along with more than 40 RJD MLAs, is camping in Purnea not to win but ensure the defeat of our leader who is getting the support from all sections of the society,” Pappu Yadav’s supporters alleged. “On Tuesday night, we were abused by RJD supporters who wanted to harm our leader’s reputation,” they continued.
“During Tejashwi Yadav’s road show, dozens of people shouted slogans in support of Pappu Yadav at RN Shaw roundabouts in Purnea town area,” stated Sub Divisional Police Officer (SDPO) Pushkar Kumar. But the cops arrived at the scene, and the road show went on. The RJD filed a report in this respect, and the police are looking into the event.

With incumbent JD(U) MP Santosh Kumar, RJD nominee Bima Bharti, and Pappu Yadav in the race, Purnea is embroiled in a triangular election. On June 4, the results will be made public.
