In a display of political acrimony, the Union Home Minister, Amit Shah,
directed sharp criticism towards Nitish Kumar, referring to him as “Paltu
Babu,” which translates to “turncoat” or “flip-flopper.” Shah urged Kumar,
the Chief Minister of Bihar, to show respect for those individuals who
contributed to his rise to power. This verbal assault highlights the
growing tension between the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Janata Dal
(United) (JDU), which are part of the ruling coalition in Bihar. The
derogatory remarks by the Home Minister shed light on the internal dynamics
and strained relationships within the alliance, fueling speculation about
potential political ramifications in the state.
