Chirag Paswan warns BJP over seat-sharing, says alliance may suffer

LJP leader Ram Vilas Paswan's son Chirag Paswam took to Twitter to say if no deal for the 2019 General Elections is sealed on time, there may be some losses.

He tweeted, "Had several meeting with BJP leaders over seat-sharing of the alliance but talks didn't progress much. If no deal is sealed on time, there may be some losses."

In an earlier tweet, Chirag had said: "After the exit of TDP and RLSP, the NDA is going through a tough time. So the BJP must drive away the worries of the remaining allies on time by taking necessary steps."

Earlier this year, the BJP had lost two of its allies, Andhra Pradesh chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu's Telegu Desam Party (TDP) and Upendra Kushwaha's Rashtriya Lok Samta Party (RLSP).

Shiv Sena, another ally of the BJP, has already declared it would go solo in the 2019 General Elections.

Moreover, Congress, the principal opposition party, has given a jolt to the BJP by defeating it in three assembly elections just few months prior to the next Lok Sabha elections.
