PATNA: After Pakistan flags were unfurled in Indian Kashmir yet again, the Chief Minister of Bihar state has questioned India Prime Minister Narendra Modi's silence.

While referring to Modi’s ‘lack of courage’ on Saturday, Nitish Kumar asked "what had happened to his [Modi's] 56-inch chest."

"The person who had boasted of having 56-inch chest is in power in Delhi when flags of ISIS and Pakistan are being hoisted in Jammu and Kashmir. What happened to his 56-inch chest? What happened to the person who used to utter such tall talks?" Kumar said.

In January 2014, Modi had said that it required a 56-inch chest person to build a place like Gujarat.

In addition to raising concerns over the reported raising of the flags in at least two places in Kashmir, Kumar also charged the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) of compromising on the ideology of Shyama Prasad Mukherjee by forming a coalition government in the valley with the Peoples’ Democratic Party.

shahid | 9 years ago | Reply @VJ Ramesh: Already there is Military Occupation so what else is new.. 700,000 HINDU-stani troops stationed in J&K and still you state Military Rule.?? By the way, it would be worthwhile to read your own Constitution once in a while, specially Article 370; where.. by your own Constitution, HINDU-stanis cannot Own, Procure, Buy, any Land, House, Business, property and or have any Rights whatsoever to acquire any Assets in J&K. It also states that Hindu-stan is just a Caretaker of J&K for time being till plebiscite is held for people of J&K to decide their own fate. I am not saying it belongs to Pakistan, but it is for sure, does not belong to Hindu-stan. Also, please read the UN resolution which is signed by your PM Jawaharla Nehru and his Cabinet which endorses Article 370 of your Constitution. Be happy of what you occupy, dont disturb its balance, as if Article 370 is withdrawn then defacto Hindus-tan will become Occupier of J&K instead of being a Caretaker. Then believe you me, J&K will for sure be the center of dispute then Pak, China, USS, Russia, CIS states et al, will stake their claim on independent J&K, and then... your Atoot Ang songs will become mourning tunes. So, let it be, status quo is the necessity of the time; do not rock the boat as it may tilt over.

VJ Ramesh | 9 years ago | Reply Nitish Kumar is fully right in saying where are the guts of PM Modi when openly Pakistani and ISIS flags are waved in Kashmir. Also where is his party President Amit Shah who had brokered this power deal in J&K. We all today feel Shiv Sena is the right party to be in rule in J&K. India requires the guts of Bal Thakaray to deal with the separatist of Kashmir. PM Modi should not waste time and break off the ruling alliance and order 'Military' rule there.

Kolsat | 9 years ago | Reply this man Nitish Kumar is an egotist. He wanted to become Prime Minister but when that did not happen he broke his alliance with Modi's party. Now he wants to again become Chief Minister of his state, Bihar and has formed alliance with two very corrupt parties and their corrupt leaders to win the upcoming election where he once again hopes to become the Chief Minister. So I would not much weight to his utterances.

abb | 9 years ago | Reply Modi. 56" cheat just for feeding babies

My view | 9 years ago | Reply Modi ji can only talk and bully people by words, although his actual firepower is as limited as people believed before he was in power. How is it possible that India suddenly becomes so powerful and starts issuing frequent anti-Pakistan vitriol within 2 years? Tall words, exactly those tall words which will soon fall and usher a fatal downfall as it loses international favour over gross behaviour of their diplomats. Do keep in mind why Congress-government kept away from issuing anti-Pakistan statements, they knew the actual power of Pakistani people by experience of so many decades unlike the 2-year old BJP government.

Azi | 9 years ago | Reply @TooTrue: Dont take their analogies and self praises serious, Indians have a habit of portraying themselves way more than they are worth.

TooTrue | 9 years ago | Reply A 56" chest? Well he must be as tall as he's wide then.
