Rabri threatens to shift to rented house

Patna: Disgusted with the treatment meted out to her in respect of providing residential accommodation, former Bihar Chief Minister and Leader of the Opposition in State Assembly Rabri Devi has threatened to shift to a rented house.

``The state government was requested time and again to provide a suitable accommodation befitting the status of a Leader of the Opposition since the present residence was not habitable in rainy season,'' Ms Rabri Devi told media persons here on Thursday after her arrival from New Delhi.

The present accommodation provided to her was in a dilapidated condition and there was seepage from various spots, she alleged and said it was difficult to live in such a condition as monsoon was on the cards.

"If the State Government did not provide a suitable accommodation, I would be forced to shift to a rented house,' she declared.

Lambasting the National Democratic Alliance Government, the Leader of the Opposition alleged that it had failed on all fronts and people were feeling cheated in the name of `good governance'. -- UNI
