Patna, May 17 (ANI): Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar decided to step down from his post on Saturday afternoon after his party, the Janata Dal United, was routed in the general election. According to reports, several ministers and Janata Dal (United) members of the legislative assembly squarely blamed him for the defeat of the party in the polls. The JD (U) has won just two of Bihar's 40 Lok Sabha seats. His former partner the BJP has won 31 along with its allies in the state.
