Bihar CM Nitish Kumar to Shift Allegiance, Sack RJD Ministers

Kumar is in talks with PM Modi and Home Minister Shah, with BJP MLAs already pledging their support.

Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar is expected to sack ministers from the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) and replace them with BJP faces.
All BJP MLAs in Bihar have already given letters of support to Nitish Kumar.
Nitish Kumar is in direct talks with Home Minister Amit Shah and Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
The Bihar Chief Minister will host a lunch tomorrow of JD(U) and BJP MLAs at his home, after which the MLAs of both the parties will go to the Governor to give their letters of support.
The Bihar crisis comes at a delicate time for the newly formed Opposition bloc INDIA, whose members the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) in Punjab and Haryana, and the Trinamool Congress in West Bengal have declined to share seats with the Congress in the Lok Sabha election.
