Patna (IANS)| A day after a picture of ‘Red Fort’ was put up for Nitish Kumar at an Iftar party, senior BJP leader and Rajya Sabha MP Sushil Kumar Modi suggested him to dream big and stand in front of the White House banner. He sarcastically said, “His supporters believe that he has become the President of the USA.” Chief Minister Nitish Kumar attended an Iftar party in Patna’s Phulwarisharif area, where host JD-U MLC Khalid Anwar put a picture of the Red Fort on the stage on Monday.
Modi said, “Nitish Kumar is in a strange position. He claimed that he has no desire to become the Prime Minister of the country and on the other hand he asked his supporters to make posters and banners. Asked to raise the slogan ‘Ho, Nitish Kumar Jaisa Ho’.”
He further said, “There is no such chance as of now. A person with only 44 MLAs sometimes sits on the shoulders of the BJP and sometimes becomes the Chief Minister sitting on the shoulders of the RJD and if that person starts dreaming of the prime minister’s post then it is ridiculous.” “
The BJP leader said, “Who is giving importance to Nitish Kumar in Delhi? On Monday, the DMK had organized a conference on the issue of social justice and invited Tejashwi Yadav as one of the speakers. The leader was also not invited. He was saying that there will be discussion on opposition unity after the end of Rahul Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Yatra. It’s been more than a month now but there is no communication from his side till now and It won’t even come in the future.”
