Aafaq Ahmed Khan said, "National President of Janata Dal (United) and Chief Minister of Bihar Nitish Kumar has appointed Rajiv Ranjan Prasad as National Spokesperson. K C Tyagi, who was in the party as spokesperson, has resigned from the post, citing personal reasons."
JDU leader KC Tyagi said, “Such is the game of politics that those who had refused to make Nitish Kumar INDIA bloc’s national convenor have been now making offers to make Nitish PM.”
According to JDU leader KC Tyagi, Nitish Kumar never hankered after a position in the alliance but a section of the Congress leadership repeatedly insulted him.
