By ANIThursday, March 11, 2010
PATNA - The Bihar Congress on Thursday withdrew the resignation of Sadhu Yadav, against whom action was taken yesterday for speaking against the government on the issue of the Women’s Reservation Bill.
Congress-led United Progressive Alliance (UPA) Government had on Wednesday suspended Yadav for his anti-government comments.
Congress Government had sent a notice to Sadhu Yadav in this regard, charging him of speaking against the party line.
Reports said that Yadav, who was not in favour of the Women Reservation Bill spoke against the Central Government on the issue.
Yadav, however, had said that he did not receive any official notice and was still with the Congress Government.
Sadhu Yadav, who is the brother-in-law of Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) supremo Lalu Prasad Yadav, contested the election on a Congress ticket that he lost.
He was earlier in the Rashtriya Janata Dal party prior to joining the Congress. (ANI)
