Kishor said he will work towards developing young leaders in the state.
Kishor, who has always opposed Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA), said Nitish Kumar needs to spell out whether he is with the ideals of Mahatma Gandhi or those who support Nathu Ram Godse.
“Ideology of Mahatma Gandhi and that of Nathuram Godse, cannot go hand-in-hand,” Kishor said.
While talking about the party”s ideology. Kishor said, “Nitish Kumar always told us that the party can never leave the ideals of Mahatma Gandhi. But now the party is with those people who support the ideology of Gandhi’s killer Nathuram Godse. Gandhiji and Godse cannot go together.”
Kishor was expelled from JD(U) in January for questioning the party’s stand over the controversial Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) and the National Register of Citizens (NRC).
