Nitish’s big promise for backward states
Patna, Before the next Lok Sabha elections, Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has made a big promise in the midst of discussions about making the opposition parties a common contender for the post of Prime Minister. Nitish, who is busy uniting the opposition parties for the next elections, has announced that all backward states will be given special status if a non-BJP government is formed in the country. It is worth mentioning that Bihar itself has been demanding special status from the central government for a long time.
It is worth mentioning that Nitish Kumar has formed the government in Bihar by joining hands with RJD, Congress and Left after separating from BJP. Since then, he has met leaders of several opposition parties including former Congress President Rahul Gandhi, Samajwadi Party’s Akhilesh Yadav, CPM General Secretary Sitaram Yechury, NCP chief Sharad Pawar, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal. Earlier, Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao had reached Patna and met him.
