Former Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, accompanied by his son Nishant Kumar, visited his native village, Kalyan Bigha in Nalanda district, on the death anniversary of his wife, Manju Sinha. He offered prayers at a local temple and paid homage to his late wife, Manju Devi.
During a tribute ceremony at the memorial garden (Smriti Vatika), Nitish Kumar appeared emotional as he offered flowers and garlands with tear-filled eyes. He then interacted with party workers and supporters, addressing various regional issues and grievances presented by the locals.
Prominent leaders, including Rural Development and Information & Public Relations Minister Shravan Kumar and Member of Parliament Kaushalendra Kumar, joined Nitish Kumar in paying tribute to Manju Devi. A lighter moment occurred when Nitish Kumar and Nishant Kumar were seen feeding puffed rice (muri) to fish in a village pond, drawing attention from villagers.
Nishant Kumar, however, maintained distance from the media and focused on engaging with legislators and party workers. Adding a political dimension, Nishant’s uncle, Satish Kumar, expressed hope for Nishant’s future as a Chief Minister, citing his bright political prospects and the people’s ultimate decision in Bihar.
