In a quick damage control exercise, the Bihar Police had given a clean chief to the JD(U) minister on the basis of reports by the police chiefs of East Champaran and Sitamarhi districts.
After the opposition created a ruckus in the state legislature during the brief budget session last month, the minister had famously said “My name is Khan, but I am not a terrorist.”
The chief minister had strongly defended the minister and slammed the central paramilitary force for making unsubstantiated charges and rebuked it for not following proper procedure in the matter.
