Fresh blow to LJP in Bihar as its lone MLA joins rival JD(U)

PATNA: In yet another blow to LJP, its lone MLA from Bihar’s Matihani constituency Raj Kumar Singh formally joined JD (U) in the presence of chief minister Nitish Kumar.


The development comes about a month after only LJP MLC Nutan Singh joined BJP. Nutan’s husband Neeraj Kumar Singh alias

Babloo

is a minister in the Nitish cabinet.

The Matihani MLA had invited the party’s ire recently after he voted in favour of JD (U) candidate Maheshwar Hazari during the election for the post of assembly deputy Speaker.
