‘Nitish Kumar Has Earned Recognition Worldwide’
General Secretary Chhotu Singh stated that Nitish Kumar has made a name for himself globally.

BJP Supports JD(U)’s Demand
The BJP has also supported the JD(U)’s demand. BJP spokesperson Neeraj Kumar stated that there is no issue with the JD(U) seeking the Bharat Ratna for Nitish Kumar. He noted that Kumar, along with the BJP, established good governance in Bihar, which had been plagued by lawlessness.

Kumar emphasized that there is no objection within the BJP regarding this demand.
