“Those who came to power in 2014, will they be victorious in 2024? I would like all (opposition) to be united for 2024,” Nitish told the media
New Delhi: Moments after taking oath as the Bihar Chief Minister for the eighth time, Janata Dal (United) leader Nitish Kumar on Wednesday took a veiled attack at Prime Minister Narendra Modi and stated the BJP-led NDA regime at the Centre needs to “worry” about its prospects in the 2024 general elections.
“Those who came to power in 2014, will they be victorious in 2024? I would like all (opposition) to be united for 2024,” Nitish told reporters.
Nitish, however, categorically stated that he is not eyeing the Prime Minister’s position in 2024.
“I am not a contender for any such post (on PM post),” he said.
Earlier in the day, Bihar Governor Phagu Chauhan administered the oath of secrecy to Nitish at a ceremony held at the Raj Bhavan in Patna. RJD’s Tejashwi Yadav took oath as his deputy.
Nitish ended his alliance with the BJP on Tuesday, resigned as the coalition Chief Minister, only to stake claim again hours later.
The JD(U) leader met the Governor and staked the claim to form a new government in Bihar. Nitish also submitted a list of 164 MLAs belonging to seven parties, including the RJD, Congress, Hindustani Awam Morcha, Left parties and one independent, supporting him.
