Rahul slams Nitish for aligning with BJP


New Delhi, Jul 27 (IANS): Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi on Thursday slammed Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar for ditching the Grand Alliance and joining hands with the BJP for "personal gains".

"We were aware of what was going on from last three-four months. This is the problem with Indian politics. For the sake of power and personal gains, they compromise with anything," Gandhi told reporters outside Parliament.

His remarks came soon after Nitish Kumar took oath as Chief Minister of Bihar for the sixth time.

He added there were no rules and credibility in Indian politics.

    I will choose the second option because BJP is the former.

    Nitin Kumar is "Chatur Politician"... he made Bihar "Sharab mukth", never know, he is joining hand with BJP just to eliminate Sangh!

    Nitish Kumar, who resigned to protect his anti-corruption image, and got into bed with BJP has not yet heard of the myriad corruption scandals in which the BJP is caught in Kerala. In this past one week, BJP leaders have been caught in corruption cases related to Medical college approval, defrauding money after promising an army job, bribery for building tax exemption in the municipality and quite a few other dealings. Guess 'clean' Nitish also has not heard of Vyapam, Bellary Mining scam or Sahara diaries

RaGa advised him to continue as CM that indirectly telling to supported corruption . The problem with Indian politics is it runs in family. 24 yr old is deputy chief minister. When family politics ends then problem will end atleast by 70%

    SO BOTH PAPPU AND LALLU SHOULD BE THANKFUL TO NITISH FOR ENJOYING TWO YEARS OF FREE POWER EVEN THOUGH THEY DO NOT DESERVE IT.

    Why did this scamgress join Maha Ghatiya Bhandhan in Bihar ? Rjd and jdu don't need it any case .

    Why did khangress join hands with SP in UP ? Personal sake or power sake !

    Why did they join hands with the Comis on weather Bengal at the same fight against them in Kerala ! Power sake or personal sake ?

    If the so called oldest party is not behind personal or power hungry they would have fought BJP Alone, not compromising with different regional parties in different state.

    You and your party key members need to get up 5.30 in the morning and and start working on new strategy.
    If someone has done corruption in your tenure condemn them and do not try to save them.

    Rahul, so sad that due to unfavorable stars, nothing seems to be working in your favour these days. How things could recuperate from such a bad condition is no one’s guesswork. Needs lots of efforts and right leadership to sustain further damage and total disintegration. Try your best and save the face.
    Politicians of opportunity cannot be sincere, dedicated leaders but the try to remain in power to serve their own interest.

    People voted for "Mahaghatbandhan" because Nitish Kumar was part of that "Mahaghatbandhan".

    Had only Congress and RJD created so called "Mahaghatbandhan", people wouldn’t have voted for such "MahaGHATIAbandhan".

    So stop making false narrative of people’s faith in "Mahaghatbandhan".

    Let me remind you RJD won majority of seats in last election.

    We knows lalu party is fully corrupted then why Nitish agreed to make Ghatbhandan with Lalu?

    If Nitish seriously against the corruption then he never ever take again CM oath with BJP, we knows how BJP playing dirty political role here

    Corruption is the actual reason for Nitish Kumar joining hands with BJP

    I yes then there are certain questions for Nitish Kumar to answer

    A) Nitish Kumar you have joined hands with the Party which has declared Corrupt Yediyurappa has the CM candidate of Karnataka in 2018 assembly.

    B) Nitish Kumar you have joined hands with the Party which has supported Corrupt Vasundara Raje and her son Dushyant Singh and she still continue's to be the CM of Rajasthan

    C) Nitish Kumar you have joined hands with the Party who has supported Shivraj Singh Chauhan in Vypam Scam and he still continue's to be the CM of Madya Pradesh.

    D) Nitish Kumar you have joined hands with the Party who has supported Pankaja Munde for her corruption case, The court has given her clean chit but she did not resign when the corruption case was filed against her and continued to be the minister.

    E) Nitish Kumar you have joined hands with the Party who has supported Mehbooba Mufti Sayeed (PDP) who has supported Afzal Guru and was against his hanging.

    You are opportunist Mr.Nitish Kumar

    Dear Nithin Poojary here you read the answers for your questions point-by-point;

    A) De-notification cases of Yediyurappa – duly acquitted by courts…. Moreover, he was not the first CM who did the de-notification of Govt land…. Why not any cases against various CONGiss Ex- CMs’ of Karnataka or elsewhere???

    B) Corrupt of Vasundara Raje and her son Dushyant Singh??? Not even a single document available to prosecute them. Nor CONGiss Leaders are now chasing the false allegation. Rather CONGiss Ex-CM of Rajasthan is facing court cases for Vadra illegal land dealing

    C) Shivraj Singh Chauhan in Vypam Scam??? In fact Ex-Governor of MP appointed during UPA regime is involved in the scam.

    D) Pankaja Munde for her corruption case??? In-fact it was the tender initiated and opened during the NCP/CONGiss regime in Maharashtra. Do you know that Tender was awarded to one of the lady CONGiss Leader in rural Maharashtra? Even court has given Munde clean chit now

    E) Mehbooba Mufti Sayeed (PDP) who has supported Afzal Guru and was against his hanging??? Then why Gopal Krishna Gandhi has been nominated by CONGiss of vice-prez even though he wrote letter to Ex-Pres. Pranab Mukherjee not to approve death penalty for Mumbai Blast Criminal Yakub Memon?

    No amount of spin and whitewashing will be able to cover up their Illegal Mining scam, VYAPAM scam, Lalit Gate, Rice Scam, Chikki scam.
