Patna: Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar Tuesday said there is “no question” of an alliance between his party Janata Dal-United and the Congress, ending speculations in this regard.

“There is no question of an alliance between JD-U and the Congress,” Nitish Kumar told mediapersons here.

“We (JD-U) have already joined hands with the Left parties, including CPI, to contest polls in the state. How can we have an alliance with the Congress,” Nitish Kumar said.

He also denied that JD-U leaders had met Congress leaders on the issue.

He said it was only media speculation that JD-U will join hands with the Congress to press their demand for special category status to Bihar.
