Govt to scrap rule for ex-CMs' bungalow: Dy CM

PATNA: Deputy CM Sushil Kumar Modi said on Wednesday the provisions underneath the Bihar Special Security Group Amendment Act to allot professional bungalows to former state leader ministers for life could be annulled to agree to the Patna top court order as and when it comes.
“The other provisions underneath which the secretarial and other helps are given to the previous CMs would, then again, be retained,” he said.

The top court on Tuesday served notices on six former CMs to give an explanation for why they needed such bungalows. The court also requested the state government why CM Nitish Kumar had been allocated the 7, Circular Road bungalow as former CM when he used to be already residing on the 1, Anne Marg bungalow in the capacity of CM.

The court would pay attention the subject on February 11. Incidentally, the development building division on Monday allocated the 7, Circular Road bungalow to the state leader secretary.

In respond to a query, Modi said, “If the CM feels constrained and thinks he needs an extra bungalow to discharge his constitutional actions, he might be allocated the only. This, then again, would should be written to the top court.”


Modi on Wednesday also vacated his professional 1, Polo Road bungalow allocated to him on changing into deputy CM after the primary NDA government got here to energy in Bihar in November 2005. He has been staying in the bungalow since 2006. His transient place of dwelling now's 25A, Hardinge Road. Modi determined to vacate the Polo Road place of dwelling in anticipation that chief of opposition in state assembly, Tejashwi Prasad Yadav, would vacate the five, Deshratna Marg bungalow after the top court pushed aside his plea to retain it.


“Once the second NDA government got here to energy in July 2017, Tejashwi should have routinely vacated the bungalow,” Modi said. “Tejashwi should surrender his obsession for the bungalow on Deshratna Marg and transfer to the one that has been allocated to him,” Modi said, keeping up that Tejashwi owned 52 homes, together with 47 plots of land and five houses.

RJD chief Tejashwi Prasad Yadav on Wednesday said the notification issued by means of the development building division shelling out 7, Circular Road bungalow in the name of leader secretary used to be “simply an eyewash”, as it had been performed two days earlier than the Patna top court notices on Tuesday. Tejashwi said the 7, Circular Road bungalow had been allocated to Nitish in the name of “ex-CM” whilst he lived at 1, Anne Marg. For just a two-member family, Nitish had been allocated 1, Anne Marg, 1A Marg, 7, Circular Road, 6 Circular Road, 4 Deshratna Marg in Patna and six, Kamraj Lane in Delhi.
