In the unpredictable world of politics, the dynamics can shift dramatically at any moment—former adversaries can quickly become allies. This seems to be the case in Bihar, where BJP leaders are notably reversing their stance toward Chief Minister Nitish Kumar source says. Prominent BJP figure Giriraj Kishore has even gone so far as to advocate for the prestigious Bharat Ratna to be awarded to the esteemed Sushashan Babu, suggesting a significant pivot in their political strategy.
Sources indicate that this newfound praise for Kumar may serve as a tactical maneuver to push him aside, paving the way for Samrat Chaudhary, the son of influential Koiry leader Shakuni Chaudhary, to take the helm in the upcoming elections. The subtle signs are unmistakable; despite the BJP's public declarations, history demonstrates that the party masterfully conceals its true intentions, allowing speculation to arise. Recently, there were reports of Chaudhary abruptly departing a crucial meeting called by the finance minister, intended to discuss the intricacies of GST, to board a chartered flight back from Jaisalmer. This sudden exit raises eyebrows about the balancing of priorities within the party source says.
Additionally, it has come to light that Chaudhary met with a senior BJP leader in Delhi, a gathering that might signal significant behind-the-scenes negotiations. All indications point to a well-orchestrated plan already in motion. There are whispers that Nitish Kumar may soon withdraw from the race, citing health concerns, which would leave the BJP with a clearer path to strategize and execute their plans for the state elections unimpeded. As the political landscape continues to evolve, only time will reveal the true intentions of the key players involved source says.
