PATNA, March 5: JD(U) chief Nitish Kumar on Thursday filed nomination papers for Rajya Sabha elections, virtually bringing the curtain down on his tenure as the state’s longest-serving chief minister, paving the way for a new government, likely to be headed by the BJP.
Kumar announced his intention to return to Parliament through an X post, stunning party workers. JD(U) workers vandalised the party office, alleging that the BJP hatched a “conspiracy” to elbow out their trusted leader, with the help of “moles”. (PTI)
