Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and RJD supremo Lalu Prasad Yadav on Sunday met Congress president Sonia Gandhi and urged her to lead the Opposition’s unity efforts to dislodge BJP from power in the 2024 General Elections. The meeting at Sonia Gandhi’s residence in the national Capital is seen as important in the context of Nitish’s repeated rejection of the “third front” and his call for the formation of a “main front” that will include both the Left parties and the Congress to take on the Narendra Modi juggernaut in 2024. Both Lalu and Nitish said Sonia Gandhi heads India’s largest Opposition party and they requested her to take the initiative for the Opposition’s unity.
