Having rebelled against JD(U) chief Nitish Kumar's decision to swap "secular" alliance for BJP, Sharad Yadav has called a conclave on 'sanjhi virasat bachao' (save composite culture) at Constitution Club in New Delhi.

Sharad Yadav,

The conclave, conceived as a protest against Bihar CM Nitish Kumar's decision to junk the "secular" alliance is set to be attended by leaders of several Opposition political parties, including Congress, Trinamool Congress, RJD and leaders of the Left parties. It is possible that Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) leader Tariq Anwar also attends the conference.

An invitation has been sent to 16 opposition parties. This will be the next big gathering of the opposition after it decided to launch a joint campaign against the ruling party.

The conference comes days after Yadav held road shows in Bihar. Several leaders close to him are being targeted by the leadership with 21, including Dalit leader and former minister Ramai Ram, being suspended from the party on Monday for their participation in Yadav's road shows.

The political dais to centrestage "secular values" would follow what is turning into a complete divorce between Nitish Kumar and Sharad Yadav.
