Lok JanshaktI Party (Ram Vilas) leader Chirag Paswan, son of the late Ram Vilas Paswan, has alleged in Patna that a big Minister in the Union Cabinet had invited him to meet on March 29 and promised that “I should not worry about vacating my house in Delhi and he even spoke to another Minister regarding this and said we would not be evicted from the house.”
But, the very next day, on March 30, the 12, Janpath bungalow, which was allotted to Ram Vilas Paswan in 1990, was vacated with household stuffs, including Paswan’s bust dumped outside the bungalow. Paswan had died in October 2020 and the bungalow was later allotted to Union Railways and IT Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw in August 2021. The sprawling 12, Janpath bungalow in the heart of Lutyen’s zone in Delhi, had become synonymous with Ram Vilas Paswan and hub of activities of his Lok Janshakti Party for over three decades.
“On March 29, I got a call from a big Minister in the Central Cabinet to meet him and he not only assured me but promised me that I do not have to worry about vacating the house. He also spoke to another Union Minister in front of me and said we need not vacate the house. I want to ask why he invited me to meet him and made such promise. Had I sought his appointment? When time will come, I will expose his name and the Minister to whom he spoke to”, Mr. Chirag Paswan told media persons after reaching Patna on March 2.
