Actor-politician Shatrughan Sinha on Tuesday (July 30) dubbed Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar as "Prime Ministerial material" and said that he wanted to build bridges between the former partners BJP and the JD(U). "Nitish Kumar is PM material. He is among the select few good and successful chief ministers in the country today," Sinha, the BJP Lok Sabha member from Patna Saheb, told reporters at the Jaiprakash Narayan Airport in Patna. Sinha clarified that he was saying so as Kumar was among many leaders qualified for the post. "At the end of the day one can become PM only after being chosen by the party and numbers in the elections," he said. He also said that on the basis of his good personal rapport with Kumar, he would try to build bridges between the NDA and JD(U). In an exclusive interview with TIMES NOW's Editor-in-Chief Arnab Goswami, Shatrugan Sinha, Senior Leader, BJP, talks about his comment on Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar as "Prime Ministerial material".
