'Tainted' Bihar minister Kartik Kumar resigns hours after being handed new portfolio
India TodayBihar minister and RJD leader Kartik Kumar, who was named as an accused in a kidnapping case, has stepped down from his new position in the sugarcane industries department. The Communist Party of India Liberation, a key ally in Bihar’s Mahagathbandhan government, wanted Nitish Kumar and his deputy, Tejashwi Yadav, to review the decision to appoint Kartik Kumar as a law minister in the cabinet. BJP spokesperson Arvind Kumar Singh claimed that Nitish Kumar could not muster courage to remove the tainted minister from his cabinet and that the entire exercise was nothing but an eyewash. The Congress had also urged Nitish Kumar and Tejashwi Yadav to take necessary steps to ensure the controversy over Kartik Kumar's appointment as law minister is arrested.
