The Bihar CM, vulnerable to accusations about his loyalties due to flip-flops in the past, is determined to form a united front against the saffron party, assert JD(U) leaders.
Smaller constituents of the ruling 'Mahagathbandhan' in Bihar today sought to step up the demand for the early formation of a coordination committee amid a perceived rift between the JD(U) and the RJD, the two largest parties of the coalition.
As Nitish Kumar took oath as Bihar CM for the eighth time, Congress MLA Pratima Das said Sonia Gandhi played a key role in the formation of Mahagathbandhan in the state.
