NITISH KUMAR ALLOTS RCP SINGH’S BUNGALOW IN PATNA TO CHIEF SECY

Patna: The rift between Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and senior Janata Dal (United) leader RCP Singh continued to deepen with the state government allotting the latter's government bungalow in Patna to the state's chief secretary Sanjay Kumar.

The development barely comes a week after the JD(U) nominated Khiro Mehto to Rajya Sabha instead of RCP Singh, who is a Cabinet Minister in the BJP-led government at the Centre and once considered a confidante of Nitish Kumar Singh, who was the only minister from the JD(U) quota in the NDA government, is set to retire on July 7.

He will not be able to continue as Union Minister for more than six months once he ceased to be a Member of Parliament. The JD(U) has represented his party in the Upper House of Parliament since 2010. (With ANI inputs)
