Bihar's political drama took another turn on Saturday, with sources casting doubt on Chief Minister Nitish Kumar's rumored resignation. This comes amidst heightened speculation about his potential exit from the 28-party Opposition bloc and a possible realignment with the BJP-led NDA.
The conflicting reports have plunged the state into a vortex of uncertainty. While some sources close to Kumar hinted at a possible resignation and subsequent oath-taking with the NDA on Sunday, others dismissed it as mere speculation.
Amidst the "confusion," the Congress maintained a hopeful stance. Party chief Mallikarjun Kharge is reportedly attempting to reach out to Kumar directly. Meanwhile, RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav fueled the fire by suggesting "unexpected developments" in the state during a recent party meeting.
The past few weeks have seen Kumar's political maneuvers become the subject of intense scrutiny. His JD(U) party's strained ties with the RJD, the main opposition ally in Bihar, have intensified speculation about a potential shift in alliances.
Adding to the intrigue, Kumar recently skipped a key opposition meeting, further fueling rumors of a brewing realignment. However, the JD(U) chief has remained tight-lipped, refusing to confirm or deny the speculations.
With the political landscape in Bihar rapidly shifting, all eyes remain glued to Nitish Kumar's next move. Will he indeed resign and potentially rejoin the NDA? Or will he choose to stay put in the Opposition alliance? Only time will tell what twist awaits in the ongoing Bihar political saga.
