Rajiv Ranjan Singh alias Lalan Singh resigned from the post of Janata Dal (United) national president on December 29.
He offered his resignation during the national executive committee meeting which is underway at the Constitution Club of India. His resignation has been accepted and Chief Minister Nitish Kumar will be the new president of the party.
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.
