RJD to form alliance in Assam? Tejashwi Yadav replies in poll-bound state

Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader Tejashwi Prasad Yadav on Saturday said his party will contest the upcoming Assam Assembly polls with the "like-minded" parties, a step seen as an effort to eat into votes of the BJP among the Hindi-speaking people.

Yadav, during his maiden visit to Guwahati, said he has already met Congress Assam chief Ripun Bora and will hold talks with the AIUDF to formalise the alliance.

"RJD has decided to expand its presence.

So, we will participate in Assam Assembly polls... We're talking to like- minded parties," he said.
