Janata Dal (United) national president Rajiv Ranjan Singh alias Lalan Singh on December 28 accused the opposition BJP of setting the narrative of his removal from the top post of the party.
Mr. Singh issued the statement hours before attending the national executive committee meeting of the JD(U) at the party office near Jantar Mantar in New Delhi. Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and other senior leaders of the party also attended the meeting.
For the past few days, there was a buzz that a decision would be made to remove Mr. Singh from the top post during the meeting and Mr. Kumar himself will take over the post as part of the coming Lok Sabha polls strategy.
