Bringing to Delhi his battle for special status to Bihar, Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on Sunday (March 17) suggested that his support would be crucial for formation of next government at the Centre and JD (U), which is part of BJP-led NDA, was not averse to exploring other tie-ups. "Either you give it (special status) now or after 2014, you will have to give it. You will have to accept the demand in circumstances that will be there after 2014. Only one, who feels about the backward, the backward states will occupy the seat of power in Delhi (Centre)," Kumar said addressing 'Adhikar' rally in New Delhi, dubbed by many as a show of strength.
