"Man Full Of Vendetta": RCP Singh Attacks Nitish Kumar Day After Resignation

The JDU had earlier demanded Mr Singh explain "irregularities" in properties linked to his daughters.

Nitish Kumar is a man full of vendetta, former union minister RCP Singh told NDTV a day after he quit the Janata Dal (United) following snubs from the party boss. Mr Singh, who is also a former party president and was a close aide of Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, said that's why Mr Kumar "stooped so low and targeted his daughters".

The JDU had earlier demanded Mr Singh explain "irregularities" in properties linked to his daughters.

Nitish Kumar was reportedly upset with RCP Singh for his growing proximity to coalition partner Bharatiya Janata Party. Mr Singh had accepted a union cabinet berth without the party chief's consent.

While resigning from the primary membership of the party, Mr Singh had said there was a conspiracy against him because he had become a union minister. "There's no cure to jealousy," he said in a jibe at Mr Kumar.
