RJD workers and supporters looked charged up on the day when party supremo Lalu Prasad reached Patna after a gap of nine months. RJD MLAs made a beeline to meet the party supremo at 10, Circular Road residence, the official residence of former Chief Minister Rabri Devi.
Mr. Prasad will be in Patna for the next one week before going to Singapore for a post-kidney transplant check-up. Sources said that during his stay in Patna, he is likely to hold a series of meetings apart from the one with the grand alliance.
Later in the evening, Chief Minister Nitish Kumar also visited the Circular Road residence to meet Mr. Prasad and Mr. Yadav. In the closed-door meeting that followed, Finance Minister Vijay Kumar Choudhary was also present. However, Nitish did not speak to the media after the meeting.
