• Nitish Kumar alleged that the AIMIM was an extension of the BJP
• He asked the members of the Muslim community to be cautious against the designs of Owaisi who is an agent of the BJP

Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar alleged that the AIMIM headed by Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi was an extension of the BJP. He asked the members of the Muslim community to be cautious against the designs of Owaisi who is an agent of the BJP. Nitish was addressing a rally of Grand Alliance (seven parties alliance) at Ranghboomi grounds at Purnia.

For the first time after his return from Singapore, RJD president Lalu Prasad addressed the rally from New Delhi through video and declared "Myself and Nitish are together now. We will make India BJP mukt in 2024 Lok Sabha elections". Nitish too reciprocated to views of Lalu and said, “I am in Grand Alliance forever and will work for the elimination of BJP.”

Purnia, a part of the Seemanchal region of Bihar covering four districts bordering Bangladesh and Nepal has over 60 percent Muslim voters and in the 2020 assembly elections, AIMIM had captured five seats unseating the sitting RJD and JDU legislators.

Nitish urged the Congress leadership to take a quick decision on opposition unity against the BJP for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. Time is running out Congress should respond to our appeals.
