Patna: A day after BJP prime ministerial nominee Narendra Modi attacked the JDU government in Bihar over a slew of issues, Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on Tuesday hit back at the Gujarat CM criticising him of taking advantage of terror attacks in Bihar.
Accusing Modi of calling people in Bihar terrorists, Nitish attacked him for giving a communal colour to the recent incidents of terror attacks in the state.
Modi who was accompanied by Ram Vilas Paswan of LJP launched an all-out attack on the Nitish Kumar government during his rally in Muzaffarpur on Monday. From water to power to lack of toilet facilities for women to unemployment levels to terrorism, Modi flayed the Bihar Chief Minister for not meeting the people's expectation.
Nitish had walked out of the NDA breaking a 17-year-old alliance after Modi was continuously being projected as the coalition's prime ministerial nominee. Nitish also had harboured prime ministerial ambitions but was disappointed to see Modi's favouritism in the NDA for PM candidature.
War of words between Nitish and Modi has only escalated ever since then.
