"Our objective is the same...to work in the interest of the country," he said. "There should be no dispute and everyone should stay united," Kumar added.
His meeting with Uddhav Thackeray is being seen as a bid to strengthen the Opposition unity ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha polls. The Janata Dal (United) leader will also meet Nationalist Congress Party chief Sharad Pawar in Mumbai later in the day.
Kumar has been meeting Opposition leaders to strengthen the bloc against the BJP ahead of the Lok Sabha polls due next year. He met his Odisha counterpart Naveen Patnaik on Tuesday in Bhubaneswar.
Kumar, who stunned the BJP last year when he snapped ties and stripped it of power in Bihar, had caught the national imagination with his pitch for a &iquest;united opposition&iquest; which, he believes, can take on and defeat the BJP in next year's Lok Sabha polls.
