Tyagi, the JD(U)'s political advisor and spokesperson, was replying to queries about the suggestion that followed Kumar's speech at a party rally here on Wednesday.
"Nitish Kumar was addressing a programme organised on the birth anniversary of Karpoori Thakur, whom he has idolised. Like all great socialists, Thakur abhorred dynastic succession in politics. This was the simple fact Nitish Kumar wanted to underscore. Nothing more should be read into it," asserted Tyagi.
Amid the political turmoil in Bihar after RJD patriarch Lalu Prasad Yadav's daughter, Rohini Acharya, took a swipe at Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, JD(U) leader KC Tyagi on Thursday clarified that all was fine with the INDIA bloc.
Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has announced a new team of national office-bearers for his party, Janata Dal (United), relieving several Lok Sabha MPs of their positions and promoting K C Tyagi to political advisor. The reshuffle also includes the appointment of Bashistha Narain Singh as vice president and the removal of several general secretaries, including Dhananjay Singh and Harsh Vardhan Singh.
Tyagi also asked why Rahul Gandhi was not conducting his Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra under the INDIA banner and why the Congress had demanded President’s rule in Bengal, a state ruled by an INDIA constituent
