JD(U) could win only two seats out of the total 40 seats in Bihar and Sharad Yadav himself lost to RJD's Rajesh Ranjan alias Pappu Yadav by over 56,000 votes in Madhepura.
Yadav (Sharad) went to Kumar's residence shortly after senior minister Narendra Singh arrived at Kumar's house after meeting the JD(U) President at the state guest house.
Singh, who is senior minister in Nitish Kumar Cabinet, and is being talked about as Kumar's replacement, dismissed the report.
“I am in no race for the CM's chair,” Singh told reporters emerging after meeting with Yadav.
“I will bring a proposal at JD(U) Legislature party meeting today for Nitish Kumar to continue as CM,” he said.
Asked whether Kumar has dismissed continuing as CM, Singh said he would be asked to reconsider it in view of strong wish of party legislators.
