Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on Sunday took a dig at Bharatiya Janata Party’s state chief Samrat Choudhary over his “mitti mein mila denge” remarks for him. The CM said Choudhary has "no brain" and that should actually try to do what he is saying. While expressing regrets and concerns over the remarks, Kumar said Atal Bihari Vajpayee used to talk in a civilised manner unlike many leaders in the BJP today. Earlier, Choudhary had attacked the JD(U) leader saying that he makes many U-turns and does not do what he says.
In a video posted by news agency ANI, the CM said, "If he is saying that, tell him to do it. Those who use such words have no brain..."
Choudhary also hit out at former Bihar chief minister Lalu Prasad Yadav.
He said, "BJP workers supported him five times to become the Chief Minister. This was done even though his popularity was on the decline during the 2020 elections."

Choudhary said PM Modi had asked him to work hard in Bihar to which Kumar agreed. He further said in very strong words that every BJP worker will retaliate for all of his U-turns.
He stated, "Since Nitish ran away from the alliance in 2020, work of finishing him politically should be done."
Choudhary said he will be finished politically ("mitti mein mila denge") just like mafias are getting over in the BJP-ruled Uttar Pradesh. He urged everyone to commit to doing so by the 2024 and 2025 elections.
