India Today
Prashant Kishor has confirmed that he met Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar two days ago and said he would think about joining the alliance in the state only on one condition.
Political strategist Prashant Kishor has said only if Chief Minister Nitish Kumar provides 10 lakh jobs in a year in Bihar, will he think of joining him or the alliance in Bihar. Kishore also confirmed that he met Nitish Kumar two days ago.
On Wednesday, Nitish Kumar also confirmed meeting Prashant Kishor but insisted that the meeting was "normal and not of any political significance".
Nitish Kumar, who has been working on forging opposition unity since quitting the NDA last month, refused to share details of his meeting with Prashant Kishor. "It was a normal meeting. There was not much to it. He was brought along by Pavan Varma who had met me a couple of days earlier too," Kumar said.The chief minister said he shares an "old relationship" with Kishor and denied harbouring any bitterness towards the strategist whom he had berated in Delhi earlier this month. Kishor had been caustic in his response.
