Even as JD(U) MLAs were holding a meeting, a BJP delegation met Governor D Y Patil and asked him to insist on a parade of individual MLAs and written support of all supporting parties if Nitish Kumar again staked claim to form government in the state.
Political temperature in Bihar rose amidst reports of efforts at realignment of old ‘Janata Parivar' with Lalu Prasad and Nitish Kumar coming together to form a strong government in Bihar to keep communal forces away from power.
There were reports of JD(U) President Sharad Yadav and even Nitish Kumar talking to Lalu Prasad. But, the RJD chief told reporters that these were “baseless and concocted” and refused talking to either of them.
Earlier in the day, RJD and Congress convened meetings of their legislators tomorrow to discuss the emerging political scenario.
