Patna, Nov 5 Ahead of the Assembly polls in five states, Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on Sunday met senior JD(U) leader Vashsitha Narayan Singh and discussed political issues concerning the party.

The chief minister was accompanied by state Finance Minister Vijay Kumar Chaudhary and party national president Lalan Singh.

Nitish seeks Singh's advice whenever he faces challenging situation.

The leaders are said to have jointly discussed assembly elections to five states -- Chhattisgarh, Rajasthan, Mizoram, Madhya Pradesh and Telangana. The results of Assembly elections are likely to set tone for 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
