3 days after oath, Bihar minister quits over graft

Mewalal Choudhary

New Delhi, November 19

Nitish Kumar’s new term as the Bihar CM took off to a rather shaky start with a minister in his Cabinet resigning just three days after taking oath.

Education Minister Mewalal Choudhary resigned after RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav flagged a three-year-old corruption case to question his induction into the Cabinet.

Choudhary said: “The charge has not been proved. I am the informer in the case, not the culprit.” — TNS
