India / Ex-Union Minister Raghuvansh Prasad, who recently quit RJD, dies aged 74

New Delhi: RJD leader Raghuvansh Prasad Singh passed away on Sunday after developing post-Covid-19 complications.

A former Union minister whose recent resignation from the RJD founded and headed by Lalu Prasad left political waters in Bihar astir, was critically ill and put on a ventilator on Friday.

Singh, who has been admitted at AIIMS, Delhi for about a week after developing post-Covid complications, resigned from the primary membership of the party and followed it up with an open letter, a day later, addressed to Prasads arch rival and Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, triggering speculations about his future moves.
