As Nitish Kumar resigned as the chief minister of Bihar and ended ties with 'mahagathbandhan' in the state, Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge recalled the popular phrase 'Aaya Ram, gaya Ram'.
"This information was given to me by Bihar Deputy CM [Tejashwi Yadav] and Lalu Prasad Yadav. There are many people like this in the country. 'Aaya Ram, gaya Ram'," said Kharge.
Lashing out at Kumar, Congress leader Jairam Ramesh said it is clear that a "political drama" is being created in order to divert attention from the Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra.
He said it is clear that the prime minister and the BJP are "scared" of the Yatra being undertaken by Rahul Gandhi, which is set to enter Bihar soon.
"Nitish Kumar, who frequently changes political partners, is giving tough competition to the chameleons in changing colours," Ramesh said in a post in Hindi on X.
The Congress leader said the people of Bihar will not forgive the "expert of this betrayal" and those who made them dance on their tunes.
