August 09, 2022 18:41

Soon after meeting the Bihar governor on Tuesday evening for the second time in the day, former chief minister Nitish Kumar addressed the media.

"I came here to meet the governor and gave in my resignation. There are seven parties including 164 MLAs along with Independents in the Mahagathbandhan," Nitish Kumar said at a joint presser he addressed along with the RJD's Tejashwi Yadav after meeting the governor.

"We have submitted a list of 164 MLAs to the governor and staked our claim to form the new government. He will let us know when oath-taking can take place," Nitish Kumar said.

RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav, who too spoke to the media, said, "Across the Hindi heartland the BJP does not have any alliance partner. History tells us that the BJP destroys the parties with whom it forms an alliance. We did see that happening in Punjab and Maharashtra."
