Bihar Chief Minister and JD(U) Leader Nitish Kumar has said that the prime ministerial candidate should be someone who has faith in democratic values and is seen to be secular.
Political observers see this as a bid to end Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi's chances of ever getting into that race. Moreover, Nitish Kumar has also asked the Bharatiya Janata Party to name a prime ministerial candidate for the 2014 elections who has secular credentials.
While not naming the Gujarat chief minister, Nitish Kumar indicated that if Modi was projected as the prime ministerial candidate, then there was a question mark over whether his party's alliance with the BJP in Bihar would continue.
"I have cordial relations with Bihar BJP. If external forces are bent on spoiling this relationship, I cannot help it," he told in an interview to a business daily.
