The breaking of ranks by Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has jolted the Opposition but the 17 parties plan to meet on Friday to formulate their course of action.
The centrepiece of this strategy is likely to be the Opposition unity rally of Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) chief Lalu Prasad in Patna on August 27. All top Opposition leaders are set to attend the rally. Sources claimed the RJD chief might announce there he would send Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) leader Mayawati to the Rajya Sabha from Bihar. Mayawati had in July quit her Rajya Sabha seat. Six Rajya
