Patna, Oct 12 (IANS): JD-U's Bihar President Umesh Kushwaha on Wednesday slammed his BJP counterpart Samrat Chaudhary for making statements against Chief Minister Nitish Kumar.
"Nitish Kumar may meet Rahul Gandhi or Lalu Prasad Yadav but the people of Bihar have decided to uproot him under the leadership of BJP. The Lav (Kurmi) and Kush (Kushwaha) equation has given great respect to Nitish Kumar and allowed him to rule the state for the last 18 years. He has declared Lalu’s son as his political successor but the people of Bihar would ask him questions about it," he claimed.
Reacting to Chaudhary, Nitish Kumar said: "He (Samrat Chaudhary) was quite young and I made him MLA and the minister in Bihar government. He used to change his party every day. His statement has no sense. Don’t talk about him."
