TDP expects to get 2 Cabinet, 2 MoS berths in Union govt

JD(U)’s Munger MP, Rajiv Ranjan Singh alias Lalan Singh, a close confidant of Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar and Rajya Sabha MP Ramnath Thakur, an extremely backward classes (EBCs) leader, are among the top probables for the cabinet berths.

“I have no information of getting a ministerial berth in the Union cabinet. I have always worked as per the direction of our leader CM Kumar,” said Thakur, when asked about his chances of becoming a Union minister on Saturday in New Delhi.

Thakur is the son of former chief minister Karpoori Thakur, who was conferred Bharat Ratna posthumously a few months ago.
