'Nitish Kumar Not Able To Handle Bihar': Ravi Shankar Prasad Slams Bihar CM
He further stated that Nitish Kumar is not able to handle Bihar properly and that his party is in chaos.
New Delhi: Taking a dig at Bihar CM, BJP senior leader Ravi Shankar Prasad on Sunday said that Nitish Kumar's dream of becoming Prime Minister will never come true since the people of the country trust PM Narendra Modi and his leadership.
Speaking to ANI, the BJP leader said, “Nitish Kumar has requested and pleaded to make him the prime ministerial candidate while he is unable to manage the state of Bihar. Be it Nitish Kumar or any other leader they should know that under the leadership of PM Modi the country has progressed significantly.”
He further stated that Nitish Kumar is not able to handle Bihar properly and that his party is in chaos.
"What has happened to Bihar CM Nitish Kumar? He isn't able to handle Bihar, the state is in trouble. There is chaos in his party. Congress isn't giving him any lift. Nitish ji, you want to become like Deve Gowda or Inder Kumar Gujral (former PMs)," added Ravi Shankar Prasad.
He said that the country has changed, and the people of the country have changed and they believe in PM Modi and his leadership, while Nitish Kumar has not been able to build political credibility.
Earlier on January 18, Union Rural Development Minister and BJP leader Giriraj Singh hit out at Bihar's Chief Minister, saying that Nitish Kumar is desperate to become Prime Minister.
While talking to ANI, Giriraj Singh said, “Laddoos are bursting in Nitish Kumar’s mind to become Prime Minister. Nitish Kumar could not develop in Bihar for 17 years. His ‘Samadhan Yatra’ is proof that development could not be done.”
“When KCR went to Bihar, KCR had in his mind that Nitish Kumar shall push him as the prime ministerial candidate whereas Nitish thought that KCR should make him (Nitish Kumar) the candidate. Nitish Kumar along with Lalu ji had met the Congress but of no use,” he further added.
Notably, the Bihar Chief Minister had earlier denied the intention of becoming the PM.
