BJP MP in Bihar, RK Singh commented on the ongoing political crisis in the state and said, "Nitish Kumar's politics is entirely about the 'kursi'-the chair." His comment comes after Nitish Kumar pulled out from the NDA alliance and resigned as Bihar Chief Minister.

JD(U) chief Nitish Kumar is joining hands with Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) and Congress to stake claim to form a new government in Bihar. Nitish Kumar will take oath as Bihar Chief Minister on August 10, while Tejashwi Yadav will be sworn-in as his deputy. Nitish Kumar's JD(U) and Tejashwi Yadav's RJD are likely to get 14 ministerial berths each.
