Bihar : Nitish Kumar will complete his tenure: Kushwaha

Amid a tussle between ruling ally JD(U) and BJP in Bihar, JD(U) parliamentary board chairman Upendra Kushwaha said that no one has the capacity to remove Chief Minister Nitish Kumar from his post. Talking to party supporters in Begusarai, he said that Nitish Kumar is the only leader of NDA in Bihar and will complete his five-year term.

Kushwaha said, so many leaders of different parties are thinking that Nitish Kumar cannot complete his term. I believe that there is no force in the country which can stop him from running the government as the Chief Minister of Bihar for the next five years. He cannot be removed even an hour before the end of his term.

Kushwaha’s statement came at a time when several BJP leaders claimed that his party had made Nitish Kumar the chief minister due to political compulsions.

BJP minister Samrat Chaudhary has openly said that his party has 74 seats and JDU has 43 seats, yet BJP has given top post to Nitish Kumar.

Kushwaha had declared Nitish Kumar as PM material, to which BJP leaders gave a befitting reply.
