Cracks are widening within Bihar BJP with more party legislators coming in the open and alleging lack of inner democracy with one MLA openly vouching for Chief Minister Nitish Kumar saying he would serve as a better Prime Minister.
The voice of rebellion that started yesterday by party MLA from Hayaghat in Darbhanga, Amarnath Gami is growing shriller and more and more MLAs are venting anger against party affairs and particularly blaming senior party leader Sushil Kumar Modi for the sorry condition.
BJP MLA from Jale in Darbhanga Vijay Kumar Mishra came out in support of Gami.
"Injustice has been done with Gami who has been suspended from the party without show cause notice," Mishra told PTI today.
He said he is with Gami in this battle of justice.
BJP MLA from Moiuddinnagar in Samastipur Rana Gangeshwar Singh is more forthcoming.

Singh sang paens to CM Nitish Kumar and said if JD(U) gets 20-30 MPs in the 2014 parliamentary elections, he would definitely become Prime Minister.
Singh questioned "rigidity" of party on name of Narendra Modi and suggested party leadership to "change the player" so that Nitish Kumar could be brought back to NDA.
"I am openly with Nitish Kumar and can make any sacrifice for him," he told PTI.
Gami in the meantime said he has no repentance as he spoke the truth.
Narendra Singh, a senior minister in the Nitish Kumar government, claimed that "around 42 BJP MLAs and 17 from RJD are standing on the doors of JD(U)".
