Rumours about the rise of another son in Bihar politics started about a fortnight ago when Nishant Kumar made a public appeal to vote for Nitish Kumar and his party JDU and bring it back to power.
The central leadership of Janata Dal-United (JDU) has overturned the decision of its Manipur state president to withdraw support from N Biren Singh-led BJP government and removed him from the post.
In a significant political development, the Janata Dal-United, an ally of the saffron party, has officially withdrawn its support from the BJP-led government in Manipur.
Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar’s ongoing state-wide tour, ‘Pragati Yatra’, has stirred Bihar’s politics. It has rejuvenated his party workers and revived his connections with women, a vote bank which he has built over the years. This has also made the opposition sit up and take notice.
Commenting on the Bihar chief minister's proposed Mahila Samwad Yatra on December 15, the RJD chief said, “They are going to ogle at women.”
Shiv Sena (UBT) mouthpiece Saamana in its editorial has criticised Bihar CM Nitish Kumar for returning to NDA fold.
"Kumar Ji is the elected CM of the state. He does not aspire for any post,” he said.
Lok Janshakti Party (LJP) leader Chirag Paswan claimed that the final decision will be taken by both the BJP and LJP together.
Lalan Singh has stepped down from the post of JD-U president months ahead of 2024 the Lok Sabha elections.
The party has named Chandrapal Yadav from Pichor, Ramkunwar Raikwar from Rajnagar, and Shiv Narayan Soni from the Vijay Raghogarh seat.
