Nitish Kumar To Resign As Bihar CM? JDU Chief Likely To File Rajya Sabha Nomination, Say Sources Patna: Amidst speculation about a possible change in leadership in Bihar, sources close to the development have revealed that Janata Dal United (JDU) chief Nitish Kumar is likely to resign as the Chief Minister of the state. The move comes ahead of the Rajya Sabha polls, where JDU is expected to field its candidate. According to insiders, Kumar's decision to step down is a result of his party's desire to have a representative in the Upper House of Parliament. Sources claim that the JDU chief has already begun consultations with top leaders within the party and other coalition partners to facilitate a smooth transition. Kumar's resignation as CM would create a power vacuum in Bihar, which could lead to a series of high-stakes political developments. The move is also expected to have far-reaching implications for the state's politics, particularly in light of Kumar's long-standing association with the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) and the Congress. The Rajya Sabha polls are expected to take place soon, with JDU's candidate likely to be announced shortly. Sources indicate that a strong contender from the party is being groomed for the position, which would require the support of other coalition partners in the state. Kumar's decision to step down as CM comes at a time when Bihar is grappling with several political and economic challenges. The state has been reeling under the impact of droughts, floods, and agricultural distress, which have had a significant bearing on its economy. As the JDU chief begins his campaign for the Rajya Sabha polls, speculation is rife about potential contenders for the Chief Minister's post. Names of several senior leaders within the party are being floated ...#Congress #JDU #Bihar #RJD #Rajya_Sabha #Nitish_Kumar #Tejashwi_Yadav

According to the report, a significant number of JioFiber users have been experiencing issues with their internet connectivity, with some reporting complete loss of service. Supabase's findings suggest that the problem may be related to an ISP-level block, which could potentially affect thousands of users.

Supabase has called upon JioFiber and other involved parties to provide clarity on the situation and take steps to resolve the issue as quickly as possible.
