Lalu Yadav Rules Out Son Tejashwi's Resignation | Read

Lalu Yadav today said that the government in Bihar - of which his party is a senior member - is not in danger of imploding. At a press conference held with wife, politician Rabri Devi, seated next to him, Lalu Yadav said that Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has not sought the resignation of his son, Tejashwi Yadav, as the No 2 in the government. "I spoke to Nitish yesterday," claimed Lalu Yadav. "Why would I destabilise him? I made him Chief Minister." The assertion was to underscore the balance of power between his party, that of Nitish Kumar and their junior partner, the Congress.
