'I'm not in JD(U),' says Bihar minister on no pic in party posters; retracts it later

Bihar minister Bijendra Prasad Yadav told reporters that he is "not in JD(U)" after finding out that his picture is missing from the ruling party's posters for a meeting on Monday. However, he retracted his statement minutes later, saying that he had made the remark "in jest". The 77-year-old is one of the senior-most leaders in CM Nitish Kumar's party.
