JMM-led Jharkhand govt allotted bungalow to Lalu Yadav to bargain seats in Bihar elections: Bihar Minister

Patna, Aug 10 (UNI) Bihar Minister Niraj Kumar today alleged that Hemant Soren government of Jharkhand has allotted the bungalow of the director of Ranchi RIMS Hospital to jailed RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav to grab at least 12 seats in Grand Alliance for the Bihar elections.
Mr Kumar said the Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM)-led government has accorded the status of "special guest" to Lalu Prasad, who had been convicted in multi-crore fodder scam, to get the seats.
Expressing regret, Mr Kumar said he had great hopes from a young leader like Mr Soren that he would tackle politicisation of corruption through legal means but instead he was giving special treatment to a convict of the fodder scam of Bihar and Jharkhand both.
