His 20 years in power will be remembered for wasted opportunities: Prashant Kishor attacks Nitish
PTI, Aug 4, 2024, 6:58 PM IST
Political strategist turned activist Prashant Kishor on Sunday charged Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, his former mentor, with failure to secure tangible benefits for the state despite the BJP’s dependence on him to retain power at the Centre.
Kishor alleged the JD(U) boss was fretting over his party’s share in the Union council of ministers and using his clout with the BJP to settle scores with detractors at the state level, instead of leveraging his position to rehabilitate the state industrially.
“People are talking about special status for Bihar. I ask why Nitish Kumar could not press for the restoration of 20 sugar mills that have been moribund for years? He has been in power for nearly 20 years which shall be remembered for wasted opportunities,” the IPAC founder told reporters here.
