Nitish Kumar, Chief Minister of Bihar and leader of the JD(U), stated on Friday that Lok Sabha elections could be held ahead of schedule. As a result, we must all remain cautious.
“Elections (Lok Sabha) can be held before time. So, we all have to remain alert and all the internal communications have been done,” Nitish Kumar said after the INDIA alliance meeting.
He further said that the “Parties are working together unitedly. So, as a result of this, those who are at the Centre will lose. They will go away. Be assured.”
“You (media) are captive right now. Once you are free from them, you – the press – will be liberated and you will write and speak what you think is correct. This is very important…They want to alter the history of the country. Together, we will not allow them to do this,” he added.
