Why Nitish has no reason to worry on Trust vote

June 19, 2013 11:56

Even as Nitish Kumar presented the trust motion, BJP MLAs entered the Bihar Assembly shouting slogans in favour of Narendra Modi. The BJP says even if Nitish Kumar wins the trust vote, he has lost the trust of the people. 91 BJP legislators and 22 from the RJD are expected to vote against the JD-U. The JD-U has 118 and with the Congress pledging support with four MLAs, Nitish has got the 122 votes he needs to win.

This is the first time since the BJP quit the NDA, that the Bihar Assembly is in session with the BJP members now occupying the opposition benches.
