Nitish Kumar Resigns News: The RJD (79), Congress (19), and three Left parties together (16) have 114 MLAs, eight short of a majority in House of 243. The JD(U)’s 45 MLAs and the BJP’s 78, along with the support of one Independent legislator, together make up 124 MLAs.
Backing Opposition's demand for a statement by PM Modi on Manipur violence, Nitish said in July last year, “Such incidents are highly condemnable. The Prime Minister must issue a statement in Parliament.”
