Chief Minister Nitish Kumar today said he will visit the national capital on December 9 to attend the Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley's daughter's wedding reception, but kept everyone guessing on whether he would meet Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

"I will be going to Delhi on December 9 to take part in Jaitley's daughter's reception," he told reporters in reply to a question.

When asked about his other engagements including a meeting with the Prime Minister, Kumar said the schedule has not been prepared as to what else he would be doing there and meeting whom.
