Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has hinted at the possible involvement of RJD supporters in Khusrupur train torching incident on Monday and asked Railway Minister Mamata Banerjee to examine the incident and also look into the “bloated” Railways’ profit during her predecessor Lalu Prasad ’s tenure.
In New Delhi, Banerjee, too, said the Khusrupur incident was “mischievous” and asked for a complete report. “I don’t know how it happened. It was misinformation. I find it mischievous. I have asked for a complete report,” she told reporters.
Nitish, meanwhile, spoke to Banerjee, and later said: “As I have also served as Railway minister, I am curious to know the secret behind Laluji’s success. I pointed out to Mamata why the Railways under Laluji often asked for assistance from the Finance Ministry if it had earned so much profit”. Calling the Railways profit “bloated”, Kumar demanded a thorough examination of facts and figures to bring out the truth. He said the Rs 90,000-cr profit was “indigestible”.
