NITISH WAS INDIA BLOC’S ARCHITECT: JDU HITS BACK AT SONIA

NEW DELHI: The Janata Dal (United) has expressed resentment over the portrayal of its president and former Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar in Congress leader Sonia Gandhi’s memoir.

The party said Kumar was the main architect and driving force behind the opposition INDIA bloc, rejecting Gandhi’s claim that he had been looking for an opportunity to leave the alliance.

JDU national spokesperson Rajeev Ranjan Prasad alleged that Gandhi had presented the episode in her book as part of a strategy to mislead people.

“The JDU is deeply aggrieved by the way Nitish Kumar has been mentioned in Sonia Gandhi’s book in the context of the INDIA bloc. We believe that Nitish Kumar is the architect and driving force behind the INDIA bloc, which is currently being led by Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi,” he said in a video statement.
