Former Union minister Raghuvansh Prasad Singh passed away on Sunday in AIIMS, Delhi, a day after he fell critically ill and was put on a ventilator.

Singh, who was admitted at AIIMS, Delhi, for about a week after developing post-Covid-19 complications, resigned from the primary membership of the party on Thursday and followed it up with an open letter, a day later, addressed to Prasad’s arch rival and Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, triggering speculations about his future moves.

A staunch loyalist of the RJD supremo whom he supported in thick and thin, Singh ran afoul with the party a few months ago when murmurs about mafia don turned politician Rama Singh, his rival in Vaishali Lok Sabha constituency, led him to resign from the post of the national vice-president.
