Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, who had initiated process for an united opposition against the BJP, on Thursday charged the Congress leadership with not taking “interest in INDIA”.

Chief minister claimed the Congress leaders were interested in the assembly elections in five states being held this month. But, they have no time for INDIA ( inko koi chinta nahi hai, koi interest nahi hai INDIA ka), he said.
Last week while speaking at the first convocation of North Bihar Central University at Motihari, Nitish had all praise for the Prime Minister, Narendra Modi for expediting establishment of the university and condemned the UPA government at the Centre for ignoring his demand for the Central University.
The Madhya Pradesh Congress President, Kamal Nath had cancelled the scheduled meeting of INDIA at Bhopal on October 4. Nitish suggested unification of the CPI and CPM and assured full support of his party. Both CPI and CPI(M) are in the Grand alliance
