JDU Supporters Demand Nishant's Political Entry; Will Nitish Agree?
- •JDU supporters, under Mukund Sena, are actively campaigning for Bihar CM Nitish Kumar's son, Nishant Kumar, to enter politics through hunger strikes, banners, and posters.
- •Prominent JDU leaders like Sanjay Jha and even BJP's Rajiv Pratap Rudy have publicly supported Nishant's political debut, citing Nitish Kumar's age.
- •Despite widespread calls, Nitish Kumar and Nishant have remained silent, with Nishant dismissing questions with a smile.
- •The issue reignites the debate on dynastic politics, with PM Modi opposing it while BJP itself has examples like Jyotiraditya Scindia and Anurag Thakur.
- •Nitish Kumar, known for following Karpoori Thakur's anti-dynasty principles, might allow Nishant's entry only after his own retirement.
Why It Matters: JDU supporters push for Nishant Kumar's political entry, but Nitish's stance on dynasticism remains key.
