RSS supports Narendra Modi as PM, slams Nitish Kumar - Times of India
"To keep alive the Hindutva ideology, the Hindu 'samaaj' (society) should come together. And the country should have a prime minister who believes in that ideology or propounds that view," Bhagwat told reporters.
Bhagwat's comments came a day after Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar hit out at Narendra Modi without naming him and said that the National Democratic Alliance (NDA), led by the Bharatiya Janata Party, should announce a secular PM candidate for the 2014 Lok Sabha elections. Nitish Kumar on Tuesday made it clear that Modi is unacceptable as an NDA candidate for PM. "Will Nitish decide what sort of person makes a good PM?" Bhagwat questioned. He also slammed Nitish Kumar and said that he is scared to call himself a Hindu.
Attacking Modi is being seen as Kumar's attempt to establish his credentials among Bihar Muslims.
