My sense is that a lot of voters in Bihar have been waiting for the BJP to play a bigger role in Bihar politics. Voters would get a sense that the era of Nitish Kumar is coming to an end in Bihar politics and the JD(U) is declining. Do you think the NDA needs to find a new leader in Bihar and help BJP win the state polls again? I don’t think there is any connection between Paswan’s attack on Nitish Kumar which helped RJD or others mobilizing votes against Nitish. I believe that when political parties come to power, they have the will to develop but many don’t do it as per expectations because of some factors.
