Muslims in Bihar miffed at Nitish for supporting Waqf Bill
They said that the Bill is not just aimed at usurping Waqf properties in the country but is also aimed at sowing the seeds of discord between various sects of the community.
Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has tested positive for Corona, an official said on Tuesday.
The cabinet meeting scheduled for today has also been cancelled as Kumar, who has been unwell for the past four days, is on bed rest.

He also skipped the swearing-in ceremony of President Droupadi Murmu on Monday which led to a huge speculation in the political circles of the state.
The analysts on this concluded that the relationship between BJP and JD-U has run into rough weather.
Justifying Nitish Kumar’s absence, JD-U parliamentary board president Upendra Kushwaha said that the chief minister could not make it to Delhi for the ceremony as he had loads of work to finish.
He also claimed that it is not necessary for Nitish Kumar to go to every event.
“JD-U had supported Draupadi Murmu in the presidential poll. When Draupadi Murmu came to Patna for the election campaign, Nitish Kumar announced his party’s support to her. Going to an oath ceremony is just a formality. It is not necessary to go to every event. It is not a big issue. People should stop giving so much attention to it,” he said.
