Nitish Kumar has turned down an offer for his party to join Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government, he confirmed just ahead of the oath-taking ceremony today. Mr Kumar told reporters that nobody from his party will feature in the government as he was leaving his residence in Delhi to head to Rashtrapati Bhawan where the PM was sworn in along with a council of ministers. However, he said his party, the Janata Dal United, remains a committed constituent of the NDA.
