Nitish Kumar, the chief minister of Bihar, stated that he has no desire to become the prime minister and would rather “work for the country’s interest.” Bihar’s chief minister and his deputy, Tejashwi Yadav, met with former Uttar Pradesh chief minister Akhilesh Yadav on Monday in an effort to unite the opposition against the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
After a closed-door meeting, Kumar addressed the media and announced that negotiations are underway to unite more opposition parties against the right-wing party. The chief minister refuted rumors that he would be the next prime ministerial candidate by stating, “I have no desire for power or position; my goal is to serve the country.”
Regarding who will command the combined force, the chief minister of Bihar stated that the decision will be made after the unity has been formed. “I desire nothing for myself. I will serve the nation’s best interests. There will be others present, and we will deliberate,” he said.

Meanwhile, the leader of the Samajwadi Party extended his support to Nitish Kumar for removing the BJP from power. “They (BJP) want to rewrite India’s history. They must understand the past. They are not performing any task and are only publicizing. We will form a coalition with the majority of opposition parties to contest the impending elections, he said at a press conference.
Nitish Kumar has intensified his ‘campaign’ to unseat the BJP in the upcoming general election. Nitish Kumar met Rahul Gandhi and Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge in the capital days prior to this meeting.
