BJP in damage-control mode as JD(U) expresses ‘anguish’

In less than 24 hours after JD(U) publicly expressed its “anguish” over BJP inducting six of its seven MLAs into the party in Arunachal Pradesh, the saffron party on Monday went on a damage-control mode to ward off any threat to the continuance of the Nitish Kumar-led NDA government in Bihar. ​​“The BJP-JD(U) alliance is ‘atoot’ (unbreakable) in Bihar. We have firm belief that the NDA government will work for its full five-year term under the leadership of Nitish,” Rajya Sabha member Sushil Kumar Modi.
