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.
