'Now the country will be united': Nitish Kumar meets Mallikarjun Kharge, Rahul Gandhi
New Delhi/IBNS: Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, who has taken it upon himself to reach opposition unity ahead of the 2024 general elections, met Congress supremo Mallikarjun Kharge and Rahul Gandhi in Delhi on Monday.
The meeting comes on the heels of one with Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal.
The interaction was meant to fix a date for a big opposition meeting, which had been planned since before the Karnataka assembly election.
According to reports, the leaders also discussed opposition unity and whether they will attend the inauguration of the new parliament.
"Opposition parties' meet will be held. The date and place of the meeting will be announced within one or two days... A vast number of parties will be taking part in the meeting," senior Congress leader KC Venugopal told reporters.
After the meeting, Kharge, in a Hindi tweet, wrote: "Now the country will be united, 'The strength of democracy' is our message! Mr. @RahulGandhi and we discussed the current political situation with the Chief Minister of Bihar, Mr. @NitishKumar today and took forward the process of giving a new direction to the country."
