Patna: Bihar CM Nitish Kumar has given clarification on the claim of election strategist Prashant Kishor. Nitish said that he (Prashant) asks for his campaign and keep speaking whatever he wants, and we don't mind. There was a time when I respected him. Those whom I respected have treated me badly. 

Let us inform you that a statement of Prashant Kishor came on Wednesday, in which he claimed that Bihar CM Nitish Kumar is in touch with BJP and if the situation demands, he can again tie up with NDA. Prashant Kishor is currently on a padyatra in Bihar. This padyatra is being seen as Prashant Kishor's entry into active politics.

On Friday, when Nitish Kumar was asked about being in touch with the NDA, he said- 'Why do you take that man's name? Please don't ever ask me about him. We have already told you once. After all, whoever wants, keeps on speaking every day. Know him well. He keeps saying this for his publicity. You know all this. Let's keep talking - It doesn't matter to us? We have a lot of respect for him at some point of time. What does he say - let him keep saying. That did not make sense. You know the people we have respected. How badly they have treated me. What will you do? Will leave him. Don't comment on it at all. Prashant Kishor said- 'Nitish Kumar has kept open a line of discussion with BJP through JDU MP and Deputy Chairman of Rajya Sabha Harivansh Narayan Singh.'
