New Delhi: Mincing no words, JD (U) supremo and Bihar CM Nitish Kumar has demanded an explanation from ally BJP over spokesperson Shahwaz Hussain’s claims that he was denied ticket from Bhagalpur at the CM’s behest. In an interview to Network18, Kumar termed Hussain’s comments “highly irresponsible”.
“I got him the seat from Bhagalpur and he won with JD(U) support the first time. His statement is highly irresponsible. Not only should he retract it, I strongly urge the BJP to issue a clarification,” Kumar said.
