Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on August 18 dismissed allegations of “return of jungle raj” by the BJP and asserted that the controversy surrounding newly inducted Minister and Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) MLC Kartikeya Singh was being “looked into” for suitable action.
The Janata Dal-United (JDU) leader also reprimanded party MLA Bima Bharti for raising questions over re-induction of Leshi Singh, who has been a Minister for many years, and said the rebellious legislator will be “properly briefed by the party”.
