बिहार के मुख्यमंत्री नीतीश कुमार (Nitish Kumar) ने सत्ता की बागडोर राज्य के उप मुख्यमंत्री तेजस्वी यादव को सौंपने का शनिवार को एक बार फिर संकेत दिया है. जद (यू) नेता कुमार ने पिछले साल कहा था कि जब बिहार में 2025 में अगला विधानसभा चुनाव होगा, तो राष्ट्रीय जनता दल (राजद) के युवा नेता राज्य में सत्तारूढ़ महागठबंधन का 'नेतृत्व' करेंगे. इससे जद (यू) में खलबली मच गई थी और संसदीय बोर्ड के प्रमुख उपेन्द्र कुशवाहा ने यह आरोप लगाते हुए इस्तीफा दे दिया था कि मुख्यमंत्री कुमार ने गठबंधन करते हुए अपने कट्टर प्रतिद्वंद्वी एवं राजद प्रमुख लालू प्रसाद के साथ एक 'सौदा' किया है. भाजपा नेताओं के साथ 'व्यक्तिगत संबंध' संबंधी हालिया टिप्पणी के मद्देनजर उनके एक बार फिर से पलटी मारने को लेकर जब अटकलें लगने लगीं, तो कुमार ने इसका जोरदार खंडन किया है. तेजस्वी यादव की मौजूदगी में पत्रकारों से बात करते हुए कुमार ने उनके (यादव) कंधे पर हाथ रखा और कहा, 'अब यह बच्चा मेरे लिए सब कुछ है.' यह इशारा राज्य के राजनीतिक हलकों में चर्चा का विषय बन गया.  जब पत्रकारों ने प्रदेश कांग्रेस अध...

BJP MLA from Chittorgarh Chandrabhan Singh on Saturday alleged that he was denied a party ticket because of the party's state president CP Joshi's grudges against him since their student days. He said his being overlooked would make party face consequences in the entire division as he served the people for 10 years with full honesty. "This is a local dispute.
