Nitish's imminent exit, Congress-TMC deadlock leave INDIA gasping

The unspooling of the India bloc has been put in sharp relief by the JDU chief's U-turn and imminent exit from the alliance, and Mamata's announcement to go it alone in the Lok Sabha elections. The serious instability stemming from the eastern region - Mamata's recalcitrance and Nitish's U-turn - have created complications in the last stretch just when Congress and allies had hoped to seal seat-sharing and joint programmes and hit the campaign trail.
