Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has said it was "stupid" of him to enter an alliance with the BJP in 2017 after parting ways four years earlier, and stressed that as long as Janata Dal United (JDU) exists, there will be "no compromise" with the BJP. रविवार को पार्टी की राष्ट्रीय परिषद की बैठक में @NitishKumar ने अपने आजकल चेहरे के ऊपर मुस्कराहट का राज आख़िरकार बताया@ndtv @ndtvindia pic.twitter.com/oxqCmleplz @NitishKumar ने रविवार को माना कि2017 में भाजपा के साथ जाना मूर्खता था और अब भविष्य में किसी प्रकार से @BJP4India के साथ समझौता नहीं करेंगे@ndtvindia @ndtv pic.twitter.com/bzlO2wMqIB
He was addressing party leaders at the JDU's national council meeting in Patna yesterday, a month after he walked out of the alliance with BJP and joined forces with Tejashwi Yadav's Rastriya Janata Dal (RJD) and the Congress to form a new government.
Mr Kumar said it was a "mistake" to re-enter an alliance with the BJP after breaking away in 2013. "We left the NDA in 2013, and we were doing good. Then in 2017, we made one mistake, we went back. Because of that, many people in states separated from us. After we decided to part ways (with BJP) again, many of them have appreciated the move," he said.
