Ahead of the floor test of the newly-formed National Democratic Alliance (NDA) govt in Bihar, Hindustani Awam Morcha (Secular) patron and former CM Jitan Ram Manjhi on Friday demanded two ministerial berths in the Nitish Kumar cabinet, adding fresh tension to the six-day-old govt in the state. Manjhi even reminded the top BJP leadership that he chose to stay with the NDA after setting aside the offer of CM post by the Grand Alliance.
