“People of Bihar have contributed to Gujarat’s progress.”I have come here to salute the people of Bihar,” he said.
Reiterating the point that Gujarat has prospered under BJP, Modi praised Bihar’s Deputy Chief Minister Sushil Modi for bringing development in the state.
The two-day national executive meeting of the BJP was surrounded by controversies related to advertisement issued by Gujarat state.
Kumar expressed displeasure over using his photograph in one of the advertisements, and had cancelled the dinner hosted for senior BJP leaders on Saturday night. (ANI)
