Welcoming the Delhi High Court decision of rejecting Chirag Paswan’s plea, Paras said that his nephew has every right to the late Ram Vilas Paswan's property.
The petition sought setting aside speaker’s June 14 circular showing the name of Paras as leader of Jan Lokshakti Party in the Lok Sabha.
Notably, Chirag had opened a front against Kumar ahead of the assembly elections last year when he claimed that people of the state were yearning for a change in leadership.
Paras led a coup against his nephew Chirag Paswan and split the Lok Janshakti Party (LJP) founded by his brother Ram Vilas Paswan - Chirag's father. Paras took oath as minister in Modi Cabinet on July 7.
In a party coup last month, Paswan was removed as LJP President by some rebel MPs, including Paras. He retaliated by expelling his uncle and four other MPs.
Earlier, Chirag Paswan has dubbed himself Hanuman and the Prime Minister as Lord Ram.
Chirag also said that he expected his alliance Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) to reach out during the current crisis, but BJP's silence is unexpected for him. "If Hanuman (Chirag Paswan) has to seek help from Ram (PM Narendra Modi), then it's unfortunate. I expect Ram should play a role to solve the political crisis faced by hanuman" Paswan said
On rumours of Cabinet expansion, the Chief Minister who is on a personal visit to New Delhi, said that it all depends on Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
The LJP has six MPs, including Paswan, in Lok Sabha and none in Rajya Sabha. Five of its MPs recently elected Paras as their president in place of Paswan. Lok Sabha secretariat then notified his election after all five of them met the Speaker with their representation.
LJP national president Pashupati Kumar Paras on Saturday said that Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla found our concern of 'lack of democracy' in the party as a genuine concern.
The LJP faction headed by Pashupati Kumar Paras on Saturday disbanded all bodies and state units affiliated with the party and announced a new national executive.
In the alleged audio clip, Chirag Paswan can be heard instructing Sardar to hold a massive protest at the LJP office and at the airport when Pashupati Kumar Paras arrived in Patna on Wednesday.
Chirag said that they apprised the Election Commission that in 2019 he was elected the national president of the LJP and the national executive has passed the resolution for the same.
Our present Parliament is a sign of sacrifice and pride. But, still we need a change and that is why there is a need for a new Parliament, said Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla in an exclusive conversation with India TV.
He said that his party has also written to the Election Commission, urging it to stop the Paras-headed faction from using its symbol and flag in its meeting.
Lok Janshakti Party leader Chirag Paswan on Wednesday blamed Janata Dal (United) for engineering the split in his party and rejected the decisions taken by the faction headed by his uncle Pashupati Kumar Paras, saying the party's constitution does not authorise them any such power.
Giving a clarity about his removal as nation president of the LJP, Chirag said, "No one has the authority to remove me (as party president). And hence i am ready for a long legal fight."
According to sources, the woman submitted a three page complaint at Connaught Place police station here on Tuesday night against Prince Raj, accusing him of raping her after sedating drink.
The Lok Janshakti Party faction headed by Chirag Paswan on Tuesday expelled the five MPs of the party who had rebelled against him, while the group led by his uncle Pashupati Kumar Paras removed him from the post of the party president.
