RJD supremo Lalu Prasad today rejected the resignation of his senior colleague Raghuvansh Prasad Singh saying you will not go anywhere.
Lalu wrote a letter to the senior party leader stating “you are not going anywhere, we will talk.”
“I don’t believe … a letter purportedly written by you is on social media. I, my family, and the RJD family that have nursed the party want you to get well soon and be amongst us,” the RJD supremo, who is serving sentences in Ranchi, said in his letter.
Earlier today, Raghuvansh Prasad Singh, who is currently admitted at All India Institute of Medical Sciences( New Delhi) due to some health complications, in a letter to Lalu said that he was quitting the party.
“Since the death of Jannayak Karpoori Thakur, I stood behind you for 32 years, but not now,” he said in his brief one-line resignation letter, written from his hospital bed on a ruled noteboook page.
In the footnote, he added,” I got the affection of party leaders and workers, besides common people. Please forgive me.”
Singh, a five-time former MP from Vaishali who held several portfolios in the Manmohan Singh government, including that of rural development, was reportedly unhappy over the proposed induction of alleged mafia don and former Lok Janshakti Party MP from Vaishali Rama Singh into the RJD.
