Former JD(U) president Rajiv Ranjan Singh ‘Lalan’ on December 30 vowed to sue media outfits carrying reports that he had plotted a rebellion against Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, in favour of the latter’s deputy and RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav.
Mr. Lalan issued a statement to the effect a day after he stepped down from the top party post, following which his proposal that Mr. Kumar take over as the national president was unanimously accepted.
