‘Hurt’ by Nitish’s move to join NDA, JD-U’s former office bearer quits party

Patna, (Samajweekly) Former Patna district chief of the JD-U, Paltan Singh, resigned from the primary membership of the party on Thursday.

Singh said that he was “hurt as Nitish Kumar made multiple U-turns in the last 10 years”.

“Workers like me are extremely hurt by the frequent ‘Paltimar’ of Nitish Kumar. I have been associated with the party since 1986 and served in the Samata Party and then the JD-U due to ideological similarity. I am associated with Nitish Kumar since he was the MP from Barh Lok Sabha constituency,” he said.

“My service to the party ended here. I have resigned from the primary membership of the party and sent the resignation to the district president of Patna,” Singh said.

JD-U sources said that many of the party leaders are not happy with Nitish Kumar’s decision to join the NDA and they may tender resignation ahead of the Lok Sabha elections.
