Not one to let go of an opportunity to take on Nitish Kumar, his former NDA alliance partner, Union Rural Development Minister Giriraj Singh on Monday criticised the Bihar Chief Minister for renaming Atal Bihari Vajpayee Park in Patna to Coconut Park. Singh said Vajpayee had “made” Nitish Kumar but the latter has now erased the name of the former Prime Minister. “Power is important not only in time but also in memories. Nitish-babu, time will take account of everyone,” Singh, who had served as a minister under Nitish when JD(U) was part of the BJP-led NDA in Bihar, said. Moon Soon Days before Chandrayaan-3 is set to land on Moon, ISRO chief S Somanath met Union Minister of State for Department of Space, Jitendra Singh, in the national capital on Monday to update him of the Moon Mission's progress. After the failed attempt by Chandrayaan-2, Chandrayaan-3 has far more at stake, and the ISRO chief is learnt to have informed the minister that so far all systems are functional and healthy. A successful landing, he told Singh, can be expected on Wednesday evening.
