After weeks of simmering tension between the JD(U) and BJP, Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar broke away from the NDA coalition government and joined hands with the RJD, Congress and other regional parties. The 71-year-old JD(U) leader submitted his resignation as CM to the Bihar Governor on Tuesday and staked claim to form government as head of the Mahagathbandhan (Grand Alliance). Nitish Kumar will take oath as Chief Minister today, while RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav will be sworn in as his deputy. Meanwhile, a jilted BJP plans to stage statewide protests against the Nitish Kumar government starting today.
