PATNA: (Jan 9) The NDA in Bihar on Friday welcomed a Delhi court’s order directing framing of charges against RJD chief and former railway minister Lalu Prasad, his family members and others in the alleged land-for-job scam.
Special Judge Vishal Gogne said Prasad used the railway ministry as his personal fiefdom to carry out a criminal enterprise, where public employment was used as a bargaining chip to acquire land parcels by the Yadav family in connivance with railway officials and his close aides.
Talking to reporters here, JDU MLC Neeraj Kumar alleged that Lalu Prasad’s family was running a criminal-political syndicate.
