Digital Desk: RJD Chief Lalu Prasad Yadav had a
narrow escape on Tuesday morning as a fire broke out in a room of the circuit
house in Jharkhand's Palamu district where he was staying and could not be
doused in time, officials said. The 73-year-old RJD Chief was having breakfast
in his room around 8 a.m. when the wall-mounted fan caught fire. His aides
immediately doused the fire, they added.
"A short circuit caused the fire,
and electricity supply to the premises was snapped after the incident,"
Deputy Commissioner of Palamu Shashiranjan told the media. However, as per
information gathered, no one has suffered any injury due to the incident, and
no significant damage has been reported. A short circuit has been rectified.

In connection with a 13-year-old case
about the violation of the Model Code of Conduct during elections, Prasad
arrived in Medininagar, the district headquarters of Palamu, on Monday to
appear before a special court on Wednesday.
