Patna, 9/8: In a day of fast moving political developments Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has split with ally BJP for a second time in eight years and is likely to meet Governor Phagu Chauhan later in the day, sources close to the development said.
Though no official announcements have been made, senior JD(U) leader Upendra Kushwaha in a tweet congratulated Kumar for leading a “new coalition in new form,” implicitly acknowledging the split and embracing the RJD-led `Mahagathbandhan’ (Grand Alliance) to continue in office.
