Bihar CM Nitish Kumar loses cool again in State Assembly, attacks Jitan Ram Manjhi

The Hindu  

Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar lost his cool again in the State Assembly on Thursday and said it was due to his “stupidity” that he had made Jitan Ram Manjhi the Chief Minister of the State. Mr. Manjhi, now president of the Hindustani Awam Morcha-Secular, became Chief Minister of the State in May 2014 when he was with Janata Dal and Mr. Kumar had stepped down from the post on moral grounds following his party’s drubbing in the 2014 Lok Sabha election. HAM-S leader Mr. Manjhi has joined hands with the BJP and his party became a part of the National Democratic Alliance at the Centre after his son Santosh Manjhi resigned from Mr. Kumar’s Cabinet as Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribes Welfare Minister in June 2023. While speaking to mediapersons outside Assembly premises, Mr. Manjhi said, “I’ll complain against Chief Minister Nitish Kumar to the Governor and the Union Home Minister and will demand President’s Rule in the State. Mr. Manjhi returned to NDA fold in 2020 but later in 2022, rejoined the Grand Alliance government with his son Santosh Kumar Suman becoming the SC/ST Welfare Minister in Mr. Kumar’s Cabinet.
