The meeting would begin at 4 pm tomorrow, he said.

Kumar was also trying to personally contact the leaders of opposition parties to take them into confidence on the issue of kidnapping of the policemen during Sunday's encounter in Lakhisarai with the Maoists.

The RJD-LJP combine had on Thursday accused the Chief Minister of "failing" to handle the crisis and urged Kumar to hold an all-party meeting on the sensitive issue.
