Addresing a press conference on Sunday here, Kishor said, “The first person to comment on Nitish Kumar’s health was his ally, Sushil Kumar Modi… Since then, many Bihar Ministers have commented on his health. I never made a comment on it till January. But during the BPSC protests, I learned that Nitish Kumar’s mental condition has deteriorated so much that he has no clue what’s going on in the state.” He added, “Nitish Kumar is physically tired and mentally unfit. If you want evidence for this, just ask him to name the Ministers in his Council. Nitish Kumar should resign.” Kishor emphasized the severity of Kumar’s mental state and suggested that he should step down from his position as Chief Minister.
Kishor also said, “The BJP deserves equal blame because it’s not possible that the Prime Minister or Home Minister are not aware that Nitish Kumar is mentally unfit.” Meanwhile, a poster targeting the Janata Dal-United supremo appeared outside the residence of former Chief Minister Rabri Devi in Patna.
