In Bihar, Chirag Paswan-led Lok Janshakti Party (LJP) suffered a major jolt when five of its MPs formed a separate group under the presidency of Pashupati Kumar Paras. This group has decided to remove Chirag Paswan as the leader of the Parliamentary party in Lok Sabha. Pashupati Kumar Paras has been elected as leader of the rebellion group. Five rebel MPs – Pashupati Kumar Paras, Mehboob Ali Kaiser, Vena Devi, Chandan Singh and Prince Raj met Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla and handed over a letter to him about new developments in the party. They requested the Speaker to consider Pashupati Kumar Paras as the new leader of the LJP in Lok Sabha. LJP is currently a part of NDA at the Centre.
