Signalling the growing dissent within the ruling JD(U), the party's Chapra MLA Rampravesh Rai today attacked senior leader and chief minister Nitish Kumar for inducting a former RJD MP which he claimed was against the feelings of grassroot workers."By taking Lalbabu Rai, a former RJD MP, into the party, Kumar has ignored the feelings of grassroot party workers," Rai told reporters in Chapra.The outburst comes close on the heels of state party chief Rajiv Ranjan Singh Lalan tendering his resignation, accusing Kumar of behaving like a "dictator".Rai went to the extent of saying that Kumar had no right to continue in the office if he ignores the sentiments of average party worker.Rai's statement came barely a day ahead of Kumar's three day-long visit to Chapra from tomorrow.
