Nitish Kumar Govt in Bihar will end once Modi becomes PM: BJP

The BJP said that once the party's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi is elected to power the Nitish Kumar Government in Bihar would end. The BJP's candidate from Nawada Constituency, Giriraj Singh, described Kumar as being jealous of Modi's popularity. Kumar, who was the railway minister in the Bharatiya Janata Party-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA) Government, broke his Janata Dal-United party's 17-year-old electoral tie with the BJP after Modi was declared the latter's prime ministerial candidate in 2013.
