Nitish likely to step down as Bihar CM on Tuesday, make way for first-ever BJP-led govt in state
Patna, Apr 14: Bihar finds itself on the cusp of a new political epoch on Tuesday when Nitish Kumar, the states longest-serving chief minister, is slated to make way for the first-ever BJP-led government in the province. Kumar, who heads the JD(U) and became a Rajya Sabha MP last week, is expected to tender his resignation shortly after the last meeting of his cabinet, which is scheduled at 11 am. It is a constitutional requirement. The chief minister informs his colleagues about his decision to dissolve the cabinet before meeting the governor, said Dilip Jaiswal, a senior BJP leader who is also a minister in the outgoing government. The BJP, which is the single largest party in the 243-strong assembly, with 89 MLAs, will thereafter elect its legislature party leader. The meeting of the legislature party is scheduled to be held at the BJP office here around 3 pm. Union minister Shivraj Singh Choudhan, whom the BJP parliamentary board has named central observer for the legislature party leaders election, is expected to fly down for the purpose. The 202-strong NDA also includes 85 MLAs of the JD(U), besides 19 of the Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas) and five of the Hindustani Awam Morcha, headed by Union ministers Chirag Paswan and Jitan Ram Manjhi, respectively. In addition, there are five MLAs of Rashtriya Lok Morcha, led by Rajya Sabha MP Upendra Kushwaha. All the NDA legislators are scheduled to meet at the Central Hall of the state assembly at 4 pm. After a formal declaration of support from all constituents, the governor would be approached for the formation of a new government. Deputy Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary, a former state BJP president who holds the Home portfolio in the outgoing government, is being seen as a front-runner among those whose names are doing the rounds for the top job. However, BJP insiders admit that the possibility of a surprise, at the instance of the partys central leadership, as was recently seen in Rajasthan, Delhi and Madhya Pradesh, could not be ruled out. Meanwhile, JD(U) leaders, who are trying to come to terms with the imminent loss of political clout, hope that despite stepping down as chief minister, Kumar will continue to pull some strings. Nitish Kumar ji will spend most of his time in Bihar. He will be in Delhi only while the Parliament session is on. The new government will be formed with his consent, and it will work under his guidance, said JD(U) leader Zama Khan, the minister for minority affairs in the outgoing state government. He also said that the party hoped that Kumars only son Nishant, who had joined the JD(U) a month ago, would be considered for an important role in the new government.

Quiet diplomacy intensifies to bring US, Iran back to table
New Delhi, Apr 13:Intense diplomatic efforts are underway to persuade the United States and Iran to resume talks before the ceasefire expires, with the aim of securing a lasting agreement and preventing a renewed escalation of the conflict. Egypt, Pakistan, and Turkey have intensified efforts to bring Teheran and Washington back to the negotiating table. Reports suggest that Islamabad is in active contact with Iran and American leadership and urging them to resume dialogue at the earliest opportunity. China and Russia are also involved in backchannel diplomacy to bring warring factions back to talks. Russian President Vladimir Putin held talks with Iranian President while Iranian Foreign Minister also held telephonic conversation with Deputy Prime Minister of Qatar and Foreign Minister of Saudi Arabia who also stressed the need for dialogue to resolve differences. Pakistan Deputy Prime Minister also held telephonic talks with Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Wei, who also supported continuation of dialogue for ending the crisis. The primary objective is to reach a workable understanding before the current ceasefire - set to expire around April 22 - ends to prevent a return to all-out-war. Efforts are now underway to facilitate a second round of talks within this narrow window. Despite the lack of a breakthrough in the historic face-to-face round of talks over the weekend, Turkish, Omani, and Pakistani authorities said they remain cautiously optimistic about the prospects for continued engagement between both sides.

IPL 2026: Preparation Has Been Good And Hopefully Its Around The Corner, Says Allen On KKR Form
The Kolkata Knight Riders: Reflecting on his starts and overall approach, Finn Allen admitted that while he has made promising contributions in the powerplay for Kolkata Knight Riders, converting them into bigger scores remains a work in progress, stressing the importance of balancing aggression with consistency in T20 cricket. KKR have had a tough start to their campaign this season. They went down by six wickets to the Mumbai Indians at the Wankhede Stadium and, upon returning home, suffered a crushing 65-run defeat against Sunrisers Hyderabad. Their third match against the Punjab Kings was abandoned due to rain, which gave them a solidarity point. They suffered a shocking defeat at the hands of Lucknow Super Giants in their last match. Leaving them with just one point in four matches. Its the nature of T20 cricket, trying to take the game on. Its only been a couple of games, so you cant judge too much. Personally, Ive had good starts in the first two games, but I would have liked to kick on more. Preparation has been good and hopefully its around the corner, said Allen. Its easy to get caught up in thinking you need to go harder, especially with an extra batter in the side. But for me, I know I can score quickly when Im going well. Its about not getting carried away and finding the balance between giving yourself a chance to get set and playing positively. The team has been losing the bowlers even before the start of the tournament. KKR lost Bangladeshi fast bowler Mustafizur Rahman after the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) asked the franchise to release him from the squad, and their prime pacer Harshit Rana was also ruled out due to injury The Kolkata Knight Riders batter also credited Shane Watson for his calming influence and guidance, adding that the teams preparation has been solid as they look to execute better and get their campaign back on track in the upcoming clash against Chennai. Ive had a lot of experience with Watto (Shane Watson) now. Hes got a world of knowledge and a lot of experience. Hes really good to talk to when it comes to batting and stays calm. He understands how to bring me back when things are too well or not well. Five-time champions CSK, captained by Ruturaj Gaikwad, will take on Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) in Chennai on Tuesday evening, after getting off the mark on the points table with a 23-run win over Delhi Capitals (DC).
