While saying that quitting was a mistake, former Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar has been singing the same song that Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal was before the Delhi Assembly elections. Kejriwal's Aam Aadmi Party got a majority in the polls. Now, Nitish seems to be hopeful that if he admits the "mistake" of quitting, the Bihar Assembly elections, to be held shortly, will bring the same luck to him. Nitish's expectation that Bihar Chief Minister Jitan Ram Manjhi would vacate the seat at his bidding is misplaced. These are testing times for both Nitish and Manjhi.
