Senior Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader Shivanand Tiwari while talking to ABP News said that Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar can be a tough competition to Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
"Kumar opposed the scrapping of Article 370. People know that despite Nitish Kumar being in an alliance with BJP, he is a secular leader," Tiwari added.
Janata Dal (United) had, on August 5, walked out of the Lok Sabha in protest against the scrapping of Article 370 which conferred special status to Jammu and Kashmir. Tiwari also accused the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of working on religious lines and trying to appease the Hindus in the country for vote bank politics.
