RLM President Upendra Kushwaha Criticizes JDU, Advocates for Nishant Kumar's Leadership

A statement by Rashtriya Lok Morcha (RLM) president Upendra Kushwaha about JDU and Bihar politics has heated up politics. At the RLM meeting, he said that he has also shed his sweat in forming the Samata Party and JDU. He said that this is why it pains him to see the condition of the party today. Referring to Nishant Kumar, the son of Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, Upendra Kushwaha said that he had advocated his name long ago. He said, "We have also sweated in the construction of the Samata Party and the Janata Dal United, so it hurts." Kushwaha said, "I was the first to say from the land of Samastipur that Nishant should come into politics. Nishant should lead the JDU. But I was strongly opposed at that time. The JDU is following the same path today. It was very important for the JDU to survive." Nitish Kumar's son Nishant's decision to be included in the government also said that he was made a minister.
