Not a good news for NDA: Tariq Anwar on JDU not a part of NDA outside Bihar

Amid the reports of rift with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) over no seats in Union Cabinet berth, its ally Janata Dal United (JDU) on Sunday decided not to be a part of National Democratic Alliance (NDA) outside Bihar. In its national executive meeting held at the official residence of JDU chief Nitish Kumar, the party also decided to go alone in the upcoming Assembly elections in states like Jammu and Kashmir, Jharkhand, Haryana and Delhi. The decision is being seen as Bihar Chief Minister's reply to the BJP after JDU opted out of the new government at the Centre last month, reportedly as it was offered just one seat in the Cabinet appointments.
