Patna: A day after Ranchi's Special CBI Court sentenced RJD chief Lalu Prasad to five years imprisonment and imposed a fine of Rs 60 lakh on him, RJD vice-president Shivanand Tiwari alleged that Bihar CM Nitish Kumar was also involved in the fodder scam. He was involved in the scam and took money from Shyam Bihari Sinha, the kingpin of the scam. Tiwari's statement came after Nitish Kumar said that the leaders who were involved in filing the petition against Lalu Prasad are acting as advisors to the party and are sitting near him.
The same Shivanand Tiwari said that 'Nitish Kumar has become vocal these days after PM Narendra Modi gave him the certificate of socialist leader. BJP Rajya Sabha MP Sushil Kumar Modi had alleged that Nitish Kumar was also involved in the fodder scam and used to take money after illegal withdrawal from the treasury of Jharkhand. Does Nitish Kumar have the guts to accept the allegations leveled by Sushil Kumar Modi? I am challenging Sushil Kumar Modi to repeat the charges against Nitish Kumar again. Tiwari further said, 'Shyam Bihari Sinha was the kingpin of the fodder scam.
Can Nitish Kumar deny that he has not met Shyam Bihari Sinha in his entire life? I am challenging that he had close relations with Shyam Bihari and had taken bribe in this case. I have no hesitation in stating that he was one of the petitioners against Lalu Prasad in the court to demand a CBI inquiry into the matter. RJD vice-president Shivanand Tiwari said, “The fodder scam was first detected in the first quarter of 1996 by the Deputy Commissioner and District Magistrate of Chaibasa district. He said that some illegal withdrawals were made by the Animal Husbandry Department from the district treasury. The incident reached Bihar's Finance Secretary BS Dubey. At that time Lalu Prasad was in power. He had given instructions to investigate the matter. Following his instructions, BS Dubey started the investigation of various treasuries and found illegal withdrawals from Dumka, Doranda and Chaibasa treasuries.
