A big statement has come from RJD regarding the political entry of Chief Minister Nitish Kumar’s son Nishant Kumar. On Tuesday (March 03, 2026), RJD’s chief spokesperson Shakti Singh Yadav reacted to this and targeted Nitish Kumar. However, it was definitely said that Nishant Kumar should enter politics.
Shakti Singh Yadav was talking to news agency IANS. Regarding Nishant, he said, “Rehearsal for this was already going on. We were also saying that what is wrong if someone’s child comes into politics? One should do social service, but when Nishant is coming into politics, he should come soon because the situation is now… and the situation is such that the current icon (Nitish Kumar) is no longer the old one. So, I wish that Nishant should come into politics.”
