Nitish Kumar makes personal comment on Ram Vilas Paswan's second marriage, Chirag enraged

India TV News  

Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar's reference to Ram Vilas Paswan's "second marriage in Delhi" evoked an angry outbust from the late leader's son and political heir Chirag Paswan on Tuesday. "It ill behoves the chief minister to make personal remarks about my father after his death," the young Jamui MP, born to his late father's second wife, said. Chirag, who is in Bihar to campaign for BJP candidates in the upcoming by-poll to two assembly segments, reminded Kumar "This kid had made you bite dust in last assembly polls". The allusion was to JD's drubbing in 2020 assembly polls when Chirag, who then headed the LJP founded by his father, revolted against Kumar and fielded candidates, many of them BJP rebels, in all seats contested by the chief minister's JD.
