CHHAPRA (BIHAR): A Bihar minister was on Friday held hostage for about two hours in the village of martyr Premnath Singh, who was killed in an ambush by Pakistani soldiers at the line of control in Jammu and Kashmir on Tuesday.

The villagers kept the minister hostage for nearly two hours demanding that chief minister Nitish Kumar visit their village. They asked him to call the chief minister, sources in the village said.

Gautam Singh, who is an MLA from Manjhi in Saran district and in whose assembly constituency Samhauta village of martyr Premnath Singh falls, had paid a visit to the sepoy's home to pay condolence, when angry villagers took him hostage and demanded CM's visit.

After detaining Singh, state minister for science and technology, for nearly two hours, the villagers allowed him to go following the intervention of elders.

Singh, who had gone to the national capital, was not present during funeral of sepoy Premnath Singh on Thursday.

On return, he had gone to the sepoy's village when the incident happened.

Meanwhile, mother of another jawan Raghunandan Prasad has announced to return the compensation money to the state government over "insulting" remarks of a Nitish Kumar minister Bhim Singh that people join Army or police to die.

The sepoy's mother Meera Devi told reporters in Nautan village that they were aghast by the remarks of the minister and had decided to return Rs 10 lakh compensation cheque as protest.

Raghunandan Prasad, had got the job in the Army after the death of his father, who was also an Army man.

The rural works minister Bhim Singh has tendered an apology for his comments.

Chief minister Nitish Kumar, who has rebuked the minister, has also expressed anguish over the remarks.
