Former Bihar MP Rajesh Ranjan, widely known as Pappu Yadav, has stirred controversy by filing his nomination as an independent candidate from Purnea after being denied a ticket by the Congress party. He submitted his nomination on Thursday. This move comes amidst the seat-sharing agreement within the INDIA bloc, where Purnea was allotted to the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), leaving Pappu Yadav disenchanted.चाहे जितना कर लो जुल्मों सितमपूर्णिया का जन जन है तैयारस्वाभिमान जीतेगा इस बार #पूर्णिया_मांगे_पप्पू_यादव #PappuYadav #प्रणाम_पूर्णिया pic.twitter.com/GBi0lLFGqI— Jan Adhikar Party (Loktantrik) Fan Club (@jap4bihar) April 4, 2024What was lacking in me: Pappu YadavExpressing his dismay, Pappu Yadav, moments before filing his nomination, voiced his loyalty to the Congress but also questioned the party leaderships decision.
