Ahead of Bihar Results, Nitish Kumar’s Tribute to Nehru Goes Viral

Bihar: The results of assembly elections are going to come in Bihar today, and before that the political atmosphere of the state has become quite heated. In the era of rhetoric and strategies between parties, a social media post of Chief Minister Nitish Kumar is becoming increasingly viral. In this he has paid tribute to the country's first prime minister, Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, on his birth anniversary.

Nitish's message became a topic of discussion

Nitish Kumar wrote on X (earlier Twitter)—“Respectful tribute to the first Prime Minister of India, the late Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, on his birth anniversary.” This post, which came just before the results, has become the center of debate in political circles. Many people are considering it as a subtle political gesture, although Nitish has shared it as just a simple tribute.

भारत के प्रथम प्रधानमंत्री स्व० पंडित जवाहर लाल नेहरू जी की जयंती पर उन्हें सादर नमन।
