New Delhi: “Thank you Nitish Kumar,” said Prashant Kishor on Wednesday shortly after the JDU expelled him along with Pavan Varma for allegedly indulging in “anti-party” activities.

“Thank you Nitish Kumar. My best wishes to you to retain the chair of Chief Minister of Bihar. God bless you,” Kishor tweeted while taking a jibe at the JDU’s alliance with the BJP.

The expulsion of Kishor and Varma comes after both the leaders repeatedly questioned Chief Minister Nitish Kumar-led party’s stand on the newly enacted citizenship law — CAA.
