A day after meeting Rahul Gandhi, Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar Tuesday met CPI-M General Secretary Sitaram Yechury here.
After the meeting, Nitish Kumar said that he “was not a claimant for the Prime Minister’s post and had no desire for it.”
“We have discussed that if all the parties, including the Left parties, regional parties in the states, and Congress come together, then it will be a big political formation,” said the chief minister.
Yechury said that this was a positive sign and a good political development in the country.
Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, who reached the national capital on Monday to confer with opposition leaders on making a unified front against the BJP, had a nearly one-hour-long meeting with Congress leader Rahul Gandhi.
