Day after Supreme Court rap, Bihar BJP MLC vacates seat for RLM Minister Deepak Prakash
Bihar BJP MLC Devesh Kumar resigned on Friday to allow Rashtriya Lok Morcha Minister Deepak Prakash to enter the Upper House. This decision follows a Supreme Court inquiry into Prakash's continued ministerial role despite not being a member of the legislature. The court questioned the legality of retaining a minister beyond six months without election, intensifying scrutiny on the government.
