New Delhi: RJD leader Tej Pratap Yadav suggested that Nitish Kumar should be honoured with the ‘Girgit’ (Chameleon) Ratna award due to his frequent shifts in political allegiance.
Kumar on Sunday resigned as Bihar’s Chief Minister, citing issues within the Mahagathbandhan and the opposition INDIA bloc. He swiftly aligned with the BJP, with whom he had severed ties less than 18 months ago.
“Chameleon is infamous for changing their skin …Paltis Kumar should also be honoured with Chameleon Ratna award for frequently changing his political loyaltyâ€æfor his speed of colour change”, Yadav posted on X.
Yadav, the elder son of RJD supremo Lalu Prasad, previously served as a minister in the Department of Environment, Forest, and Climate Change (DEFCC) in the Mahagathbandhan government.
