Last week, the two leaders had spoken over phone after the Bihar results were announced and Kumar had thanked Banerjee for supporting the grand alliance in Bihar in their fight against BJP.

Banerjee had congratulated Kumar over Twitter and termed the victory of grand alliance in Bihar as a defeat of "intolerance".

The JD-U leadership had last week extended its support to Banerjee in her fight against BJP and had said that along with AAP and TMC it would fight for strengthening cooperative federalism in the country.
