The National Democratic Alliance, under the leadership of Nitish Kumar, will break all records and win next month’s Bihar Assembly election, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said Friday. This is the first time the Prime Minister has spoken of contesting the election with the Janata Dal United boss as the face of the ruling alliance’s campaign, although it does not automatically follow the veteran will remain in the post should the BJP-JDU partnership retain power. It also follows a sharp jibe by the opposition Mahagathbandhan alliance over the ruling parties’ apparent reluctance to name a chief ministerial candidate. The Mahagathbandhan on Thursday confirmed Rashtriya Janata Dal leader Tejashwi Yadav as its presumptive Chief Minister.
