Union Minister and BJP leader RK Singh raised questions over the political moves of former Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar asking how the JD(U) leader would justify an alliance with the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) which he has often called "corrupt".

BJP leader and Union minister Ashwini Choubey also accused Nitish of being "opportunistic" and said those "betraying" Bihar want to create obstacles in its development.
