Failed Bid to Oust Nitish: Lalan's Secret Plan to Install Tejashwi as Bihar CM Backfires
• Lalan Singh proposed making Tejashwi Yadav Bihar's Chief Minister, Nitish Kumar rejected • Lalan Singh secretly met with 12 JD(U) MLAs to help Tejashwi become CM by breaking party • Deal between Lalan & Lalu - Lalan helps make Tejashwi CM using JD(U) MLAs, Lalu sends Lalan to Rajya Sabha • Plan was for Lalan as party president to expel JD(U) MLAs to avoid disqualification, MLAs immediately become Tejashwi's ministers • Nitish Kumar learned of plot from an MLA, removed Lalan Singh as party president
