However, the 73-year-old's slip of tongue was caught by the other leaders on the stage.
Nitish Kumar today accidentally suggested that he wishes Prime Minister Narendra Modi becomes a Chief Minister again. The Bihar Chief Minister made the remarks during an election rally in Patna where he was pitching for the ruling National Democratic Alliance (NDA) which is hoping to win 400 seats in the ongoing Lok Sabha elections.
"Humaari ichha hai ki hum deshbhar me 400 se bhi zyaada seat jeeta, aur adarniya Narendra Modi ji fir mukhya mantri bane. Desh ka vikas ho, Bihar ka vikas ho, sab kuch ho (We wish to win over 400 seats across India and respected Narendra Modi should become chief minister again. Then India will develop, Bihar will develop, everything will happen)," Mr Kumar said.
However, the 73-year-old's slip of tongue was caught by the other leaders on the stage. Correcting himself, Mr Kumar said that he meant Narendra Modi becomes the Prime Minister again and keeps moving ahead.
