Don't Agree With Nitish Kumar: Colleague Sharad Yadav Confirms He's Upset

Sharad Yadav, silent for five days, confirmed today that he deeply disapproves of party colleague Nitish Kumar's stunning political change-up. "Whatever happened is very unfortunate, the mandate by the people was not for this," the veteran Janata Dal (United) leader told reporters at Parliament.
Nitish Kumar last Wednesday terminated his two-year mahagahtbandhan or Grand Alliance with Lalu Yadav and the Congress and revived a partnership with the BJP, four years after their acrimonious split.
The Chief Minister said he felt "suffocated" and referred to Lalu Yadav's son Tejashwi's refusal to resign as his deputy despite corruption charges. Fourteen hours later, Nitish Kumar was sworn in with a new deputy, the BJP's Sushil Kumar Modi. Sharad Yadav's absence at the Friday oath ceremony was telling.
Some Janata Dal (United) leaders went public with their dismay at the ally swap but Sharad Yadav had so far communicated only through his loud silence and tweets critical of the BJP-led central government.
