OPINION | LALU, TEJASHWI MUST THINK, HOW LONG WILL THEY ALLOW NITISH TO CONTINUE AS CM

India TV News  

Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar has landed in a fresh controversy by using undignified language against his predecessor Jitan Ram Manjhi inside the assembly. Manjhi later told reporters, “I can’t believe that this is the same Nitish Kumar, whom I knew ten years ago. I think the chief minister has lost his mental balance and he needs treatment.” The manner in which Nitish Kumar lost his cool inside the assembly was shameful and undignified. Lalu Yadav and Tejashwi Yadav must think, how long can they carry Nitish’s burden and keep him in the CM’s chair.
