India News: Smarting under an acrimonious split, the Bharatiya Janata Party on Sunday called for a Bihar bandh on June 18, day before Chief Minister Nitish Kumar faces a floor test in the State Assembly. It also called upon Mr. Kumar to resign and get re-elected as the leader of the party before the vote of confidence.
"Today is a black day in Bihar's politics. The JD (U) betrayed a 17-year-old alliance. The people of Bihar gave heavy majority to the National Democratic Alliance, which the JD (U) axed in one stroke. What happened is unfortunate and the people of Bihar will avenge this insult of their mandate," Bihar Deputy Chief Minister and BJP leader Sushil Kumar Modi told a press conference here.
