With 7-month reprieve for son, Upendra Kushwaha keeps BJP at bay. For now
Rashtriya Lok Morcha leader Upendra Kushwaha secured a seven-month reprieve for his son, Deepak Prakash, who was nominated to the Bihar Legislative Council on August 5. This nomination allows Prakash to continue as a minister in the Samrat Choudhary-led Cabinet until March 2027, when new negotiations with the BJP may arise over council seats.
