Apart from this, on the previous day i.e. Sunday (May 21), Nitish Kumar had met him at the residence of AAP’s National Convenor and Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal in Delhi. Nitish Kumar had said that Arvind Kejriwal is doing good work in Delhi and it is surprising that his government is being stopped from working. Therefore, we are saying that all the opposition parties in the country should come together.
