No impact on Modi’s leadership: Jaitley

Terming Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership as ‘strong, decisive and popular’, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley has said there was no question of any impact on ‘Brand Modi’ from the results of Bihar polls. His comments follow a spectacular victory for Nitish Kumar-led grand alliance in recently concluded Bihar Assembly elections over the BJP-led NDA. When asked whether there would be any impact of the Bihar results on ‘Brand Modi’, Jaitley said: “No. Nothing like that... Brand is anyway a word coined by media. His leadership is strong, decisive and popular.”
