"Why Is BJP Not Inviting Nitish Kumar To Its Rallies?" Tejashwi Yadav

Patna: RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav on Tuesday questioned the absence of Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar from the BJP’s election rallies in the state. The former deputy chief minister made the remark while referring to the absence of Kumar, the JD(U) president, from rallies addressed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi at Gaya and Purnea earlier in the day. “Where is Nitish Kumar ji? Why is the BJP not inviting him to its rallies? He could not be seen at either rally of the PM on Tuesday. I still have respect for the CM… BJP, which is his current ally, needs to come clean on the matter,” Mr Yadav, whose RJD lost power after Kumar’s return to the NDA in January, told reporters here in the evening.
