Janata-Dal United leader RCP Singh who has been very close to Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has resigned from the party. Recently, in Bihar, there was political turmoil over the properties of some JDU workers and corruption.
Meanwhile, RCP Singh announced his resignation from the party by holding a press conference at his residence in Mustafapur in the Nalanda district late on Saturday evening. Singh has also hinted at forming a new party. With this signal, the political stir in Bihar has intensified.
Earlier on Saturday, Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar sought answers from some party workers of the party regarding the serious allegations leveled against RCP Singh. Party’s state president Umesh Singh Kushwaha had sent a letter demanding clarification from RCP Singh.
Moreover, JDU state president Umesh Singh Kushwaha said in a letter to RCP Singh that you are well aware that our honorable leader Nitish Kumar is working with the policy of zero tolerance towards corruption and he remained spotless in his long political career.
However, instead of replying, RCP Singh thought it better to resign. Due to his move, politics in Bihar has heated up.
