Patna: Founder of ” Jan Suraaj ” Prashant Kishor on Monday said Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar would lose moral right to call himself a follower of Gandhi and Lohia, if the Waqf Board Amendment Bill is passed in Parliament.

Kishor told media persons that the Waqf Board Amendment Bill was an attempt by the Narendra Modi government to deprive the Muslim community of their rights envisaged in the constitution. Muslims had been given certain rights in the constitution which could not be denied, diluted, or modified by the government without their consent, he added.

” Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has the potential and authority in present political scenario to stall the passage of Waqf Board Amendment Bill in parliament “, Jan Suraaj leader said adding that JD(U) had 12 MPs in Lok Sabha and if they did not support the bill on instruction from Kumar, there would be no chance of the bill getting approval of the parliament. If Kumar remained silent and did not take steps to stall the bill, he would lose the moral right to call himself a follower of Gandhi and Lohia, he noted.

Kishor said that Kumar had lost his control over the government as some leaders of his party and the BJP were calling the shots. It appeared that Kumar was not in good health to govern the state, he felt.
