New Delhi: Nitish Kumar, who resigned as Bihar Chief Minister hours ago, has claimed to form again with the support RJD. The resignation came hours after Kumar reportedly declared that the alliance with the BJP was “finished” because the saffron party was “not showing respect” and “conspiring” against them in a meeting with party MLAs.

After offering his resignation, Kumar travelled to the home of the former chief minister Rabri Devi, where he is expected to speak with Tejashwi Yadav, the leader of the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), and her son about creating a new administration.
