Patna: Bihar BJP state president Dilip Jaiswal, while talking to journalists on Tuesday, put an end to speculations of expansion of Nitish Kumar’s cabinet. He bluntly said that there will be no expansion of the cabinet. Therefore, all the news in this regard that is being discussed in the political corridors should not be paid attention to.
On his Delhi visit, he said, “We are going to Delhi not for the expansion of the cabinet, but to discuss in detail about the ‘membership campaign’, so that we can prepare a future outline and implement it on the ground. I want to make it clear to everyone that it would be better if they do not pay attention to all the discussions going on regarding the cabinet expansion.” Meanwhile, when he was questioned about his meeting with Janata Dal United (JDU) state president Umesh Kushwaha, he clarified, “No one should link this meeting with the cabinet expansion. This meeting has nothing to do with it. We keep meeting each other. It is not right to give political color to every meeting.”
He said, “If someone thinks that this meeting is related to cabinet expansion, then it is wrong. The main topic of our meeting was how to make the organization stronger in the coming days? How to strengthen it at the grassroots level? How to expand it? We had discussed in this regard. This meeting was very fruitful, the results of which we will also see in the coming days.” Let us tell you that recently Dilip Jaiswal had said that the expansion of Nitish cabinet can happen anytime. The entire outline has been prepared. Now just have to start the exercise of putting it on the ground. We are constantly working in this direction. But, now he himself has come forward and put an end to these speculations.
