"This will be a good gesture from Bihar towards Jharkhand and it is hoped that other pending issues between the two states could also be resolved in the same spirit," Kumar said.
Kumar accepted former Jharkhand chief minister Babulal Marandi's plea during a meeting with him over the issue here, an official statement said.
