Bihar’s Muslim woman MLA quits JD (U), joins AAP

After BJP and Congress in Delhi, it was the turn of the Janta Dal-United (JDU) in Bihar to suffer in the wake of the ‘AAP’ effect. A JD(U) leader and minister of Nitish government quit the cabinet two days back and joined the newly formed AAP. Parveen Amanullah, Bihar’s first woman Muslim minister, said that she wanted the AAP to govern Bihar. She formally quit the Bihar legislature on Wednesday. ‘I have been in talks with the AAP for a month and have finally decided to join the party,’ said Amanullah. ‘There is need of change in the national and regional politics,’ she added.
