Patna, March 17 (NationPress) Speculation surrounding Nishant Kumar, the son of Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, has surged following the appearance of a massive hoarding featuring him alongside his father outside the Janata Dal (United) office in Patna on Monday.
The poster prominently showcases Nishant Kumar next to Nitish Kumar with the message, "Bihar ki maang, sun liye Nishant, bahut bahut dhanyawaad" (Nishant, thank you very much for acknowledging Bihar's demands).
This marks the first occasion where Nishant's image has been employed in a political setting at the JD(U) headquarters, intensifying speculation about his political initiation.
His recent participation in Holi celebrations at the Chief Minister's residence, where he interacted with senior JD(U) leaders, has further fueled conjecture.
During the Holi Milan gathering at 1 Anne Marg on Friday, Nishant was seen conversing with prominent individuals, including JD(U) working president Sanjay Jha and Bihar's Water Resources Minister Vijay Kumar Chaudhary.
Nitish Kumar extended Holi greetings as JD(U) leaders celebrated with gulal.
While neither Nishant nor JD(U) has issued an official statement regarding his potential political entry, numerous party leaders have voiced their support. They believe Nishant's engagement could fortify the party and perpetuate Nitish Kumar's political legacy.
"The decision ultimately lies with Nishant Kumar and the Chief Minister," remarked a senior JD(U) leader, suggesting the party is receptive to his involvement.
Previously, when Nishant's image appeared on posters in Patna, there was an absence of explicit political messaging. The latest hoarding, however, has amplified curiosity regarding his future role.
Considering Nitish Kumar's crucial position in Bihar politics and his sway within the NDA government at both the state and national levels, Nishant's possible induction into JD(U) may represent a strategic effort to uphold his father's legacy.
As of now, official confirmation regarding Nishant Kumar's political ambitions is still pending.
