The move comes amid speculations that Janata Dal United (JDU) leader and Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar may return to the fold of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA).

The land-for-jobs case pertains to alleged appointments that were made in the railways in exchange for land parcels given or sold to Yadav’s family during his tenure as the Minister of Railways from 2004 to 2009.

It is alleged that the jobs were exchanged for land parcels that were either gifted or sold at discounted rates to the Yadav family and their associates.
