Responding to Bihar CM Nitish Kumar's remark that he wanted to be with the BJP, ace poll strategis🍸t Prashant Kishor today posted a set of photos on twitter featuring Nitish Kumar who was seen smiling with Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Hee later
The latest spat involving Bihar CM Nitish Kumar and one-time ally BJP was triggered by Prashant Kishor♋'s taunts after the Bihar Chief Minister swapped sides recently and formed a new coalition government with RJD and the Congress.
";Nitish Kumar was with the paksh (ruling party) a month ago and now he is with the vipaksh (opposition). How dependable that is, is up to the people to decide. But I don't think that the new dispensation in Bihar will have any big impact on the nation. I see it as a state specific development. I don't think it will have any impact on national politics, but anyone is free t♈o try," said Prashant Kishꦬor or "PK".
Prashant Kishore's comment was seen to undermine the siꩲgnificance of Nitish Kumar as a national leader who has the ptential to chal﷽lenge PM Modi in the 2024 election.
Mr Kumar scoffed at PK's assessment while talking to reporters in Delhi after a series of meetings with leaders like Rahul Gandhi, Arvind Kej𒊎riwal and Sharad Pawar amid buzz about him emerging as the opposiಞtion's prime ministerial candidate.
"That man (PK) came with me and then I told him to quit this work and come with me. But he didn't l𝔉isten ꧅to me and throughout the country kept working for so many parties... it is his business (dhandha)," Mr Kumar told reporters.
"In Bihar, whatever he wants to do, he is welcome. But his statements had no relevance and you talk about statements but does he know ABC of what we have done and how much wor🍃k has been done since 2005? But they are so good in publicity and statements and he is expert in these and keeps talking rubbish. When someone is talking like this, then try to understand he must have something in his mind. Like he wants to be with BJP or help BJP in a hidden way," the Chief Minister sneered.
PK was appointed as Nitish Kumar's numb♑er two in the Janata Dal United but was sacked within two years citing &quo🎃t;indiscipline" as he publicly criticised his then boss.
