It Makes No Difference Whether Nitish Kumar Goes To Delhi Or Mumbai, Modi Will Return As PM In 2024: BJP

Bihar CM Nitish Kumar left for the national capital on Wednesday afternoon where he is expected to meet leaders of the INDIA bloc, ahead of its meeting in Mumbai later this month. 

The Bharatiya Janata Party on Wednesday took a dig at Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar over his trip to Delhi saying it makes no difference whether Kumar goes to Delhi or Mumbai and that Prime Minister Narendra Modi will make a comeback for a third consecutive term as Prime Minister in 2024. Speaking to reporters in Patna, senior BJP leader Ravi Shankar Prasad claimed the Rashtriya Janata Dal chief Lalu Prasad Yadav has asked Kumar to go to Delhi and leave the CM’s post for his son, Tejashwi Yadav, reported PTI.

"It makes no difference whether Nitish Kumar goes to Delhi or Mumbai. Lalu Prasad already told Nitish Kumar to go to Delhi and leave the CM's post for Tejashwi Prasad Yadav. But Nitish Kumar is not willing to leave the CM's chair. Let me make it very clear that the BJP-led NDA will form the government again in 2024 and Narendra Modi will become the prime minister for a third consecutive term," said the BJP leader.

Kumar left for the national capital on Wednesday afternoon where he is expected to meet leaders of the INDIA bloc, ahead of its meeting in Mumbai later this month.

Questioning the Opposition coalition over its PM candidate, which is yet to be decided, the BJP leader said, “ "Narendra Modi is the only option, and he will become the PM again in 2024. As far as Nitish Kumar is concerned, he is organising the wedding procession for 2024, but who is the groom (PM contender)?" 

Soon after reaching Delhi, the Bihar CM paid tributes to the former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee on his death anniversary. 

State BJP president Samrat Choudhary said, "It is good that Nitish Kumar has gone to Delhi to pay tribute to the late Atal Bihari Vajpayee on his death anniversary. Nitish became CM of Bihar only because of Vajpayee." Former deputy CM Sushil Kumar Modi asked if Kumar respects Vajpayee, how can he say that he does not respect other BJP leaders, including the prime minister.
