Day after Nitish Kumar filed Rajya Sabha nomination papers, JD(U) workers continue to vent spleen

JD(U) workers are protesting Chief Minister Nitish Kumar's move to the Rajya Sabha. They allege a conspiracy by party 'traitors' and the BJP to remove him. Workers believe this is linked to prohibition and a deal with the liquor lobby. Some express anguish, feeling orphaned by his departure from Bihar. The party leadership is expected to address the turmoil.
