Case Against JDU's Lalan Singh Over 'Don't Let Some Leaders Step Out' Video
With less than 48 hours left before Bihar votes in the first phase of a high-voltage Assembly election, Rajiv Ranjan Singh, Union Minister and Number 2 in the Nitish Kumar-led JDU, faces a police case for making provocative remarks during a poll campaign.
An FIR has been registered against Singh, also known as Lalan Singh, over a video in which he is heard telling supporters to ensure "some leaders are not allowed to leave their homes on voting day". The FIR, registered on the Election Commission's orders, invokes sections from the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita and the Representation of the People Act.
