List of people whom Nitish Kumar has used and then ditched in the past (in chronology):
1. Mohan Prakash
2. Lalu Prasad
3. George Fernandes
4. Sushil Modi
5. Sharad Yadav
6. Tejaswi Yadav
7. RCP Singh
8. Shah + Modi

[SAM-yjio]

Forget about BJP splitting up the If I was Tejaswi Yadav, I would split Nitish's party after a few months in Eknath Shinde style & become CM myself. It's a perfect time for Tejaswi to drag Nitish's MLAs into RJD & become chief minister himself.

Nitish Kumar does more back-flip than Gymnast in the Olympics.

[wanderer]

RJD and SP are essentially the same parties . One operates in UP and the other in Bihar.

[yashwanthbk]

People of Bihar have only 2 options - Nitish of NDA or Nitish of UPA!!!

[ksb]

Suddenly respect for nitish kumar have increased ( in short) ~Shekhar gupta

[akshaychilwal]

Strange fact is - I have not met even a single BJP supporter who is feeling sad about this break up. The cadre seems to be extremely happy about this. They disliked Nitish (not JDU) from day 1.

[sudhirbhandary]

BJP dumped Akalis? I must have missed that one. I dreamt that Akalis quit NDA during farm bill protests

[therandomthings]

SG sir Correction: BJP didn’t dump TDP, sena and SAD. They left NDA for their political adventure. Now also same with JDU. Nitish thinks he only can play political games. It’s definitely back fire his political career and this term might be his last as CM.

[shuv]

BJP cadre seems to be extremely happy about the fall of coalition 😂😂

[sajal]

Felt sad for Shahnawaz Hussain, who for 1st time after so many decades was making an attempt and giving his 200% to bring industry to Bihar for answering the unemployment issue. Bad luck for the state. Hope Tejaswi Yadav will give the 10 lakhs job as he promises.

[chennakeshavathunga]

All parties supposed to be decimated by BJP went to self destruction mode TBH.. BJP just working hard to increase its base. Other allegations are actually baseless

[SuperFatafati]

BJP must do just one thing. Give Shahnawaz Hussein all power. He was the industries minister and he was actually trying to do good work. But its diffucult to bring industries to a state which hasnt even seen it in last 70 years.

[abdeo]

BJP does not need backstabbers. Next time they will form government on their own

[prashantroy]

So no one is questioning about Bihar's development under Nitish Kumar? That state is destined to doom no matter who rules because people do not have a choice.

[ThunderLightStrikes]

One episode on Naveen Patnayak who have been CM for about two and half decade. How he is able to escape media scrutiny?

[manpaohaihing]

Indian Politics is as clean as a whistle and as dirty as a gutter. That's the beauty of our Chanakyas
politics, which no country can even duplicate .

[MrRanganath]

Sg likes to blame Bjp for all problems of allies where in all of the allies have betrayed them. Whether it's shivsena, alkalis or jdu..

[anmolabhishek]

Masterstroke by BJP this will bring end of Nitish era in 2025 assembly election. Even if Gathbandhan wins Tejasvi Yadav will be CM. And Once Mr. Yadav become CM Nitish will take sanyas from Politics
