Nitish Kumar faces vote of confidence tomorrow, here are his numbers

Reported by Manish Kumar, Edited by Surabhi Malik | Updated: June 18, 2013 15:22 IST Patna: When he announced that he was ending his alliance with the BJP, Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar said, "We cannot compromise with our principles. Whatever the consequences are, we will deal with them."
Tomorrow, he will face a trust vote in the state legislature. His party, the Janata Dal United or JD(U), is four votes short of a majority. He will reportedly bridge the gap with the support of independents (there are six).
The BJP in Bihar, smarting from being dumped, wants to vote against Mr Kumar. The party's central leadership will decide if that should happen. There are 91 BJP state legislators.Former chief minister Lalu Yadav has confirmed that the 22 legislators from his party, the Rashtriya Janata Dal or RJD, will vote against the chief minister.
But the CPI and the Congress are likely to abstain. So Mr Kumar should be able to manage 122 votes, which is what he needs to stay in power.
Mr Kumar said that his party cannot continue to collaborate with the BJP now that it has placed Narendra Modi in charge of its election campaign. The JD(U), like other detractors of the Gujarat Chief Minister, alleges that he did not do enough to protect hundreds of Muslims from being killed in his state during the 2002 riots. At the time, Mr Modi was serving his first term as chief minister. In December, he was re-elected for a fourth term.
