JD(U) asks Tejaswi Yadav to come clean
Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar had called a meeting of his party leaders to discuss CBI raids on RJD Chief Lalu Yadav and his family.
Patna: Political crisis deepened in Bihar further on Tuesday after JD(U) gave its coalition partner RJD four days to issue a public clarification on the allegations leveled against Deputy Chief Minister Tejaswi Yadav.
Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar had called a meeting of his party leaders to discuss CBI raids on RJD Chief Lalu Yadav and his family. Senior JD(U) leader Ramai Ramai after the meeting said, “That the party will discuss the issue again after four days, let the RJD decide what is to be done now”.
Though other JD(U) leaders later refused to comment on the statement made by Ramai Ram, they claimed that the family must come out with the truth about the allegations leveled against them.
Party insiders said Nitish Kumar, however, did not ask for Tejaswi Yadav’s resignation because the CBI has not yet filed a charge sheet in the case.
