Hardik Patel Nitish Kumar

Gujarat Patidar leader Hardik Patel, who arrived in Patna today, said there was "no point" in meeting Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, citing the latter's tie-up with the BJP, to which he has been staunchly opposed.

Activist Hardik Patel began his journey home to Gujarat today with a full-blown attack on Prime Minister Narendra Modi over the khadi calendar row and vowed to renew the Patidar or Patel agitation for reservation in government jobs and colleges. The 23-year-old was granted bail in a sedition case last year on the condition that he would stay out of...

The face of the Patidar agitation, 23-year-old Hardik Patel, will be returning to Gujarat after six months on Tuesday.

Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has informed activist Hardik Patel that he will not be able to join him after all at a rally in Gujarat later this month as earlier planned.

Taking a view divergent to that of his party colleague and Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, JD(U) national president Sharad Yadav today disapproved of the agitation by the Patel and Patidar community in Gujarat.

Former Bihar Chief Minister Lalu Prasad has come out in support of the agitation led by Hardik Patel in Gujarat, calling the ruling BJP "anti-backward and anti-social justice," for not giving the Patel community reservation in jobs and colleges in the state.

During his massive rally, in which Hardik Patel issued an ultimatum to the BJP government in Gujarat, the 21-year-old received a shout-out from Bihar. Unsurprisingly, Nitish Kumar, the state's Chief Minister, backed Mr Patel on his demand for government jobs and college seats in Gujarat to be set aside for the caste of Patels or Patedars as part of...
