Patna, Jan 9 (IANS) A youth showed a black flag to Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar in Saran district’s headquarters Chapra on Monday, during the fifth day of his Samadhan Yatra.

The youth was identified as Vipul Chaubey, a native of Gopalganj and currently residing in Chapra town. The police personnel present at the spot immediately overpowered him and took him in custody as soon as he showed a black flag and ran towards the convoy of Nitish Kumar.
