Khera advises Nitish to keep pistol on ear of PM to get declared as CM face

Patna, Nov 8 (UNI) Senior Congress leader Pawan Khera today advised Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar to keep pistol on ear of Prime Minister Narendra Modi to get declared himself as CM face of NDA in ongoing state assembly elections.
Khera told media persons here that NDA had not so far declared Chief Minister Kumar as CM face of NDA in ongoing Bihar assembly elections. Despite repeated queries of media persons, no top BJP leader had declared Nitish Kumar as CM face, he pointed out.
"Chief Minister Kumar should keep a pistol on ear on PM Modi to get declared himself as CM face of NDA, otherwise, top BJP leaders are not inclined to project him as CM candidate of the alliance in ongoing assembly elections," Congress leader said and quipped that top leaders from Gujarat had been promoting pistol culture.
