Manjhi, who had served as the chief minister from May, 2014 to February, 2015, made a statement to this effect on Thursday in Patna while interacting with the media and also spoke about the inexperience of RJD heir apparent Tejashwi Yadav the younger son of Lalu Prasad, already projected by RJD as its chief ministerial candidate.

The JAP chief has also been saying that if Manjhi joined hands with him and their alliance came to power, he was ready to back the latter for the chief minister's post. Reacting to Manjhi's latest averments, RJD national vice president Shivanand Tiwary shot off a statement accusing the HAM president of impatience and complaining that he did not raise the issue of leadership at the Mahagathbandhan meeting earlier this week but was doing so now in public. He is making himself an object of ridicule besides giving their opponents a chance to sneer at them. If he has any ambitions or grievances, he should air these within the coalition and not try to make his views public, Tiwary said.
