PATNA: Former Bihar chief minister Jitan Ram Manjhi on Saturday said he will continue to "respect and support" the incumbent Nitish Kumar if the latter decided to return to the BJP-led NDA in the interests of the state.
Manjhi, a former protege of Kumar, who heads the Hindustani Awam Morcha (HAM), made the averment in reply to questions about the claim of former political strategist Prashant Kishor that the JD(U) leader was keeping his options open.
