Upendra Kushwaha's remarks came in wake of the Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar skipping the NITI Aayog meeting and JD-U leader RCP Singh tendering his resignation.
With the ongoing speculations about a rift between the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-Janata Dal (United) the NDA alliance in Bihar, JDU leader and former Union Minister, Upendra Kushwaha, on Monday cleared the air of any tension between the allies and said that everything's fine in the alliance.
"Yes absolutely...everything is fine in the NDA alliance..Today we are not making any claim but Nitish Kumar has all the qualifications to become the Prime Minister," said Kushwaha.
His remarks came in wake of the Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar skipping the NITI Aayog meeting and JD-U leader RCP Singh tendering his resignation.
Taking a jibe at Mr Singh, Mr Kushwaha said, "RCP Singh's statement is very objectionable and shows his mental bankruptcy."
