"It Was Like Homecoming": Sitaram Yechury To NDTV On Meeting Nitish Kumar

CPI(M) General Secretary Sitaram Yechury met with Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar in Delhi on Wednesday. After the meeting, Mr Yechury told NDTV that opposition unity is heading towards a positive direction. "It is absolutely required for Indian politics today," he said. On the issue of prime ministerial ambitions, Mr Yechury said it is not a concern as it would be clear after the election, as has been the case in past coalitions. "Meeting Nitish felt like a homecoming," Mr Yechury said, recollecting the Bihar Chief Minister, who used to visit the CPI(M) office in Delhi in the past, had stopped coming for a while.
