Bihar special status: JD(U) delegations meets President Kovind

New Delhi | A Janta Dal (United) delegation on Monday met President Ramnath Kovind to discuss the special status for Bihar at the Rashtrapati Bhavan.

A six-member delegation led by Ashok Chaudhary who met President Kovind told media that President reacted positively to the discussion. The delegation also invited President Kovind to visit Bihar.

Earlier Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar had also put forth the demand for granting special status to his state.
