Patna: Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar did not give any weight on Monday to RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat's recent statement that he was performing far better than his Gujarat counterpart Narendra Modi.
Talking to reporters, Kumar said he was not a person who became happy when somebody showered praise on him or nervous or cowered if someone criticised him.
On the comparision between him and Modi, Kumar, who has always maintained distance with RSS, said BJP had described the report as manufactured by media.
"I am against comparing me with any single state and every state has the right to boast of its progress and development," he added.
