With the Lok Sabha elections of 2024 on the horizon, the political landscape of India is buzzing with heightened rhetoric and anticipatory moves. One such significant declaration came from the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) as they firmly rooted for Bihar’s Chief Minister, Nitish Kumar, suggesting he possesses the mettle to hold the nation’s topmost position.
Senior RJD leader and spokesperson, Mrityunjay Tiwari, shed light on the collective aspiration of the people of Bihar. He said, “Every Bihari envisions Nitish Kumar as the Prime Minister of India. Our nation’s first President hailed from Bihar; it’s high time we have a Prime Minister representing our state too.” Such a sentiment not only underlines the pride of the state but also highlights the potential leadership of Nitish Kumar on the national front.
As these political currents surge, there are swirling speculations surrounding Chief Minister Nitish Kumar. Many believe he might make an impactful comeback in the forthcoming elections. The Grand Alliance’s leaders, of which RJD is a significant part, vouch for Kumar’s credentials, citing him as a personality imbued with all the requisite qualities for the Prime Ministerial post.
In a recent event signaling potential future developments, Chief Minister Nitish paid a visit to the revered Phulwari Sharif Dargah. Here, in a gesture of goodwill and perhaps foresight, the Maulvi offered prayers for Kumar’s ascension to the Prime Ministerial role.
Addressing the rumour mill and the role of the opposition, Mrityunjay Tiwari clarified, “Nitish Kumar has no plans to align with the NDA. The BJP is merely propagating these tales out of apprehension.”
India steers towards the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, Bihar stands at the cusp of potentially playing a defining role. With the RJD throwing its weight behind Nitish Kumar, the upcoming electoral battle promises intrigue, challenges, and pivotal decisions that will shape the nation’s future.
