Mr. Sushil Kumar, the Member of Parliament (MP) of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) took a dig at Mr. K. Chandrashekar Rao (KCR,) the Chief Minister of Telangana.
On the 1st of September, Thursday, Mr. Sushil Kumar said, KCR insulted his Bihar counterpart Mr. Nitish Kumar, the Chief Minister of Bihar. Addressing the media, Mr. Sushil Kumar said, “Nitish Kumar had invited KCR (as the Telangana Chief Minister is popularly known) to come to Patna to announce his name as a Prime Ministerial candidate but KCR refused to take his name forward. When Rao did not announce his name, Nitish Kumar stood from the chair but KCR then asked him to sit for a while… no bigger insult than this.”
Mr. Sushil Kumar Modi further said that both Mr. Nitish Kumar and Mr. K. Chandrashekar Rao, have been daydreaming to become prime minister.
However, rubbishing the remarks of Mr. Sushil Kumar Modi, Mr. Neeraj Kumar, the Member of the Legislative Council (MLC) of the Janata Dal United (JDU) said, “Sushil Modi is trying to twist this. He is talking against CM Nitish Kumar to get some posts in BJP. When he was in power with CM Nitish Kumar, Sushil Modi himself projected Nitish Kumar as a prime ministerial candidate. He officially said that Nitish Kumar is a PM material. As he is in the opposition in Bihar, he is saying things like this. BJP leaders are unable to digest the unity of opposition leaders. They are feeling the heat and hence giving such a statement in desperation.”
Mr. Neeraj Kumar further said, none of the leaders of the JDU aimed or projected anyone as PM Candidate and the BJP is unnecessarily raising this topic to create clashes between the opposition leaders.
It is to be noted, Mr. K. Chandrashekar Rao, the Telangana Chief Minister, on the 31st of August, visited Patna and met with his counterpart, Mr. Nitish Kumar, the Chief Minister of Bihar and the Deputy Chief Minister Mr. Tajashwi Prasad Yadav.
