News India Live, Digital Desk: These days a new discussion is in full swing in the political circles of Bihar. The activism of Chief Minister Nitish Kumar’s son Nishant Kumar has surprised political pundits. Recently, the news of Nishant Kumar’s meetings with senior leaders of Janata Dal United (JDU) and his possible ‘Bihar Yatra’ has increased the political temperature of the state. Now the first reaction of JDU State President Umesh Kushwaha on this entire incident has come out, which has further deepened the suspense.
Nishant’s secret meeting with JDU leaders
For the last few days, Nishant Kumar has been seen in formal and informal meetings with top JDU leaders and ministers. Although Nishant has always been away from politics, his sudden increase in activism is being seen as his political debut. Sources say that a large camp within the party wants Nishant to now take responsibility in the organization. In these meetings, news of discussion on the strength of the organization and future strategies is coming out.
What did Umesh Kushwaha say about ‘Bihar Yatra’?
On the news of Nishant Kumar’s proposed ‘Bihar Yatra’, JDU State President Umesh Kushwaha said that traveling in Bihar is not restricted for anyone. He said, “Nishant Kumar is a settled personality. If he travels to meet the people of Bihar and understand their problems, what is wrong in it?” However, when asked if this was his political launch, Kushwaha instead of giving a direct answer called it a personal decision and love for the state.
Will Nitish Kumar hand over the legacy?
Nitish Kumar has always opposed dynastic politics, but now a demand is being raised within JDU that the party needs a young and credible face. Political analysts believe that Nishant Kumar’s mild image and his distance from controversies make him an ideal successor. If Nishant Kumar sets out on a Bihar trip, it will be his first major attempt to directly connect with the public, which will decide the political direction of his future.
Opposition’s view and JDU’s new strategy
Opposition parties have also turned a blind eye to Nishant Kumar’s activism. RJD and other parties are seeing this as JDU’s internal restlessness and succession fight. At the same time, JDU strategists believe that with the arrival of Nishant, the party will get new strength among the youth. At present, all eyes are on whether Nishant Kumar will announce his official involvement in active politics or he will only help the party from behind the scenes.
