The former Union minister's remarks at an event in Delhi on Tuesday are being seen as a criticism of the party leadership at both the central and state levels.

The motion was passed by a voice vote in the 243-member Assembly, where the BJP-led NDA holds a commanding 202 seats.

The Leader of the Opposition made the remarks in the state assembly during a confidence motion debate led by BJP’s Samrat Choudhary.

Choudhary assumed office earlier this month, becoming the first BJP leader to head a government in the state after Nitish Kumar stepped down upon being elected to the Rajya Sabha.

Several courts had earlier received bomb threats, and police had carried out searches, but they all turned out to be hoaxes.

Kumar had been away in Delhi a day ago when he was summoned back to Patna with the message that Nabin, who got elected to the Rajya Sabha two weeks ago, wanted to vacate the assembly seat.
