NEW DELHI: Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and JD(U) national president Lalan Singh arrived together at the party’s office here on Thursday to attend its office-bearers meeting amid intense buzz about changes within the organisation.
That the two leaders chose to arrive together after having a meeting at Kumar’s residence appeared to be aimed at a message of unity in the party.
Party sources have not ruled out the possibility of Singh stepping down as the JD(U) president at its national executive and council meet on Friday.
Kumar may take over the mantle, a party leader said, insisting that there has been no confirmation to this effect from the two top Janata Dal (United) leaders.
Singh has earlier in the day accused the media of setting a “narrative”, a reference to differences within the party and the reports about his likely resignation, at the behest of the ruling BJP.
