I thank Rahul, but no plan to join Cong: Nitish
Press Trust of India, Tuesday May 5, 2009, Patna

AICC General Secretary Rahul Gandhi's praise of him notwithstanding, Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has scotched speculations on having any plan to join the Congress-led UPA after the Lok Sabha elections.

"Thanks! I thank Rahul Gandhi for the praise," Kumar told reporters, but said there was no substance in speculations on his quitting the NDA and joining the UPA after elections.

Asked if any political conclusions could be drawn from Rahul's praise, Kumar said, "Not at all. I am not looking right or left. Wherever I am, I am happy. My government is running all right and the people are satisfied. There is no reason to speculate that I am willing to forge new alliances."

"It is good that adversaries have also begun to take notice of the good work being done by us, though many central government organisations had appreciated us on various issues long back," he said.
