Patna,(BiharTimes): The national president of the Janata Dal  (United) on Thursday evening called the meeting of Janata Dal  (United) Legislative Party on February 7 (Saturday). It is usually the chief minister, who calls the meeting of  the Legislative Party, but sometimes party chief also calls  such meeting.

State JD(U) chief Vashistha Narayan Singh said that all the  issues would be discussed, including the one related to the  leadership. 

However, party insiders are of the view that only the  leadership issue would come up during the meeting as chief  minister Jitan Ram Manjhi has refused to resign  notwithstanding pressure from the party leadership. The meeting would be held in the Annexe building of the Bihar  Assembly.

It needs to be mentioned that the Budget Session of the Bihar  Assembly is to start on February 20.
Meanwhile, Manjhi on Thursday once again said that he is  working under pressure from some quarters.  “I am being accused of doing much for the poor; but whom  should I work for if not for the poor,” he said in a  function.
