Lalu Yadav flays Nitish Kumar over SC order in Muzaffarpur sex scandal
Deccan ChroniclePatna: Rashtriya Janata Dal leader Lalu Prasad has flayed his arch rival and Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar over Supreme Court’s order to transfer Muzaffarpur sex scandal to a POCSO court in Delhi. The top court Thursday came down heavily on the Bihar government for its management of 16 shelter homes in the state, other than that at Muzaffarpur, and warned that unsatisfactory response of its queries will force it to summon the Chief Secretary. A bench, headed by Chief Justice Ranjan Gogoi, directed the Bihar government to render all assistance in the smooth transfer of the Muzaffarpur case within two weeks. The case had come to light last year when a report of a social audit conducted by Mumbai-based Tata Institute of Social Sciences flagged sexual abuse of inmates at the Muzaffarpur shelter home.
