Bihar crisis: Nitish, Lalu call separate meetings with lawmakers

Patna, July 16 (IBNS): Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) chief Lalu Prasad have called separate meetings of lawmakers in Patna on Sunday, as a part of the preparation for Monday's presidential polls, media reports said.

However, media reports speculated that both leaders will address the lawmakers on the ongoing conflict in the Bihar politics that involves the row over Tejashwi Yadav's resignation.

The crisis centred around the resignation of state  Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav since the CBI registered a case against him on corruption charges.

Despite opposition's demand, the RJD as well as Lalu Prasad have ruled out the possibility of Tejashwi's resignation.

However, the development that threatens the image of the Government, has put Nitish Kumar under pressure prompting his party to create a distance with the RJD.
