Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on Monday said that he has no interest in contesting the election for the President of India post.
“Whoever said and what it is does not matter to me. I am sorry to say but please don’t print it in the news. I am serving the people of Bihar and I will continue it in future as well,” Nitish Kumar said while interacting with media persons after his Janata Darbar.
“Such a speculation started some months ago but I am not interested in it. I clarified in the past that I serve the people of Bihar and I am saying it again,” he said.
