Patna : The BJP today echoed the views of ally LJP chief Ramvilas Paswan that Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar acted like “lion” when he was in the NDA but turned into a “cat” in the company of RJD chief Lalu Prasad.
“Yes, right. This is why we call Nitish Kumar a ‘bechara mukhya mantri’ (helpless CM),” BJP leader Sushil Kumar Modi told reporters.
Union minister Paswan had yesterday made a scathing attack at the CM over the law and order situation in the state, saying Kumar was a “lion” till he was with the BJP in the NDA but has turned into a “cat” in the company of Prasad.
The BJP has on several occasions described Lalu as a “super chief minister” who has an “overriding influence in the secular alliance government”.
