A day after a local RLSP leader was shot dead by criminals in Bihar's East Champaran district triggering protests, party leader and Union Minister Upendra Kushwaha on Thursday targeted Chief Minister Nitish Kumar.

Angry over the killing of Premchand Kushwaha on Wednesday night, his supporters blocked roads, shouted slogans against the government and demanded the arrest of the killers.

Rashtriya Lok Samata Party (RLSP) chief Upendra Kushwaha attacked Nitish Kumar demanding to know how many more RSLP leaders will have to die in the state.

Premchand Kushwaha was shot dead near a village when he was on way to his village.
