Patna, Sept 23: Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Friday hit out at Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and said the JD(U) chief betrayed the BJP to ‘sit on Lalu Prasad Yadav’s lap’.
“Nitish Kumar betrayed us to sit on Lalu Prasad Yadav’s lap. Seemanchal will give a befitting reply to Nitish Kumar. Can he become the prime minister like this?,” said Amit Shah, who is on a two-day visit to Bihar.
“They [JD(U)-RJD] say I came here to start a fight. I am not here to instigate a fight. Lalu Prasad Yadav is enough for that. We need not worry under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s reign,” he said while addressing a rally in Purnea.
HM Amit Shah, while addressing 'Jana Bhavna Mahasabha' in Purnea, Bihar added, "Bihar public gave you (CM Nitish Kumar) benefit of the doubt for long, now they know that neither Lalu's party nor your party will come this time. Only PM Modi's lotus will bloom in Bihar this time." pic.twitter.com/MYmj4kmAXD

“In 2014, you (Bihar CM Nitish Kumar) only had 2 LS seats, ‘naa ghar ke rahe the, naa ghaat ke’. Let the 2024 LS elections come, Bihar public will wipe out Lalu-Nitish duo. We’re, with full majority, going to come to power here in 2025 polls,” he added.
Around 11 a.m. on Friday, Union Minister Amit Shah arrived at the Chunapur Air Force Station in Purnia, from which he travelled to the Rangbhoomi Ground to address the massive ‘Jansabha Rally.’
Amit Shah is scheduled to speak at the Jan Bhawna rally before departing for Kishanganj, where he will meet with all MPs, MLAs, MLCs, and organisational office-holders at 4 pm to discuss the state’s present political climate.
