Patna : Janata Dal-United legislator Poonam Devi Yadav sat on a dharna Friday outside the residence of Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar here in protest against the attachment of her house by police.
Poonam’s husband Ranbir Yadav, a criminal-turned politician, who is wanted in several cases, is absconding, police said.
Police began the legal process of attaching the house in Khagaria, about 160 km from here, Friday morning, after Ranbir failed to surrender despite repeated court orders.
Describing the police action as an act to humiliate her, the Khagaria legislator from the state’s ruling party staged a sit-in, in front of the CM’s residence.
