The chief of Janata Dal United, who ended ties with the BJP last month, has been in the national capital since Monday with a long list of leaders he wanted to meet. "I will not be the leader, I will try to unite (the Opposition). The BJP is trying to capture the country. If everyone fights the elections together, then the picture will be different, we are talking to all the people," he told reporters after the meeting. "We will build a main front, not a Third Front," Mr Kumar reiterated during an interaction with reporters in the evening. Declaring that his talks with Opposition leaders will be positive, he said the 2024 general elections will be "very good". "It has been a one-sided contest so far".
