NDTV
Mr Kumar, who walked away from the alliance with the BJP accusing them of attempting to weaken his party, will meet the Governor at 4 pm.
Stung by Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar's sudden switching sides, the Bihar unit of the BJP accused him of betraying the people of the state. Addressing a press conference in Patna, Bihar BJP chief Sanjay Jaiswal said the people of Bihar will "never forgive" Nitish Kumar.
"We fought the 2020 polls together under NDA, the mandate was for JD(U) and BJP. We won more seats, despite that Nitish Kumar was made the Chief Minister. Whatever happened today is a betrayal of Bihar's people & the BJP," Mr Jaiswal said.
Mr Kumar, who walked away from the alliance with the BJP accusing them of attempting to weaken his party, will meet the Governor at 4 pm. He will be accompanied by Tejashwi Yadav of Rashtriya Janata Dal and leaders of other parties supporting him, sources have said.
BJP's Union minister and the party's big face in Bihar Giriraj Singh earlier today told NDTV that his party followed coalition dharma and it was Nitish Kumar's decision to split.
