Always regarded Nitish Kumar as 'Dashrath'; don't know why he ditched "Mahagathbandhan": Tejashwi Yadav

Tejashwi Yadav says he considered CM Nitish Kumar as a 'father figure' always.

Rashtriya Janata Dal - RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav on Monday, said he always regarded Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar as a 'father figure', wondering what made him rejoin BJP, leaving the "Mahagathbandhan".

Yadav who was speaking during the debate on the confidence motion moved by the Kumar-led NDA government in the assembly, also mocked CM Nitish Kumar for being sworn in "for a record ninth time".

“I always considered Nitish Kumar as 'Dashrath' (a character from the epic ‘Ramayan’). I don't know what reasons forced him to ditch the ‘Mahagathbandhan’,” the former deputy CM said.

Yadav, who had been restrained ever since the upheaval a fortnight ago when Kumar made a return to the NDA fold, vented spleen on the floor of the state assembly.

“The BJP was scared of the 'Mahagathbandhan' government in Bihar... Can Prime Minister Narendra Modi guarantee that Nitish Kumar will not do another volte-face?” he said.
