Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar on Friday said that BJP will be wiped out of the state in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
Asked about Modi's 'ghamandia' jibe against the Opposition INDIA bloc, he said: "All of us have united together for the betterment of the country. They (the BJP) are not aware that many parties, which I shall not name right now, are with them out of fear. They will come over to this side when the elections are announced."
"This time BJP will be wiped out from Bihar in 24 and 25 elections, last time our party was defeated by fielding an agent (Chirag Paswan)," said Kumar speaking to reporters here on Friday.
Targetting Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his absence in Parliament during the intial two days of the no-confidence motion debate, he said: "(Parliament) is functioning and you are roaming outside."
"The work is not happening. No statements on places where the incidents took place... House (Parliament) is functioning and you are roaming outside. Did this happen earlier? When we used to be MPs during Atal Bihari Vajpayee's government all of us used to make it a point to remain inside the House and pay attention to the proceedings but today they don't."
He also questioned the current manner of Parliament proceedings.
