Nitish Kumar, Come Back, Support Meira Kumar For President: Lalu Yadav | Read

After announcing that Meira Kumar, a Dalit woman and former Lok Sabha Speaker, will be its candidate for President of India, the opposition made its next big move: it asked Nitish Kumar to return to the fold. "We will meet Nitish Kumar and will appeal to him to support Bihar's Daughter," said Lalu Yadav, who is Mr Kumar's partner in running the Bihar government. "We will appeal to him again and again," he said, adding that he is not upset with Mr Kumar and that perceptions of their alliance being imperiled by the contest for President are off the mark.
