Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader and Opposition bloc’s chief ministerial candidate, Tejashwi Yadav, has launched a fresh attack on Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, alleging that he has been “hijacked” by the BJP and will not return to power even if the NDA wins the upcoming state elections.

Addressing a massive rally in Saharsa district on Friday, Yadav accused the ruling coalition of misleading the people of Bihar while neglecting core issues such as employment, corruption, and poverty.

“Amit Shah has made it clear that the elected legislators will choose the next Chief Minister. Nitish Kumar will not be made CM even if the NDA wins again. Our ‘chacha’ (Nitish) is not in control—he has been hijacked by Narendra Modi and Amit Shah, who are running Bihar from outside,” Yadav declared.
