Bihar poll to have natl implications, says Nitish

Asserting that the Bihar poll outcome will have national implications, Chief Minister Nitish Kumar today said it has made it clear that people want a strong alternative at the national level and have rejected attempts at polarising the society. In his first press interaction after the massive victory, he said Bihar results reflected the mood of the nation and described it as a "milestone election", while thanking people for the decisive mandate. He also asserted that despite the bitter campaign, he will not hold "grudge against anybody and will work together with all" keeping a positive mindset as he sought the Centre's cooperation for the progress of Bihar.
