Senior BJP leader Uma Bharti on September 10 lauded Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar for implementing the prohibition on liquor sale in his State, but said he can not be an alternative to Prime Minister Narendra Modi who is a “creation of God”.
Ms. Bharti, a former Madhya Pradesh chief minister, has been demanding a total ban on liquor in the BJP-ruled State for long.
“Nitish Kumar has at least shown the courage to implement total prohibition in his State,” she said, speaking to reporters at her residence.
