Jamui (Bihar): Natwar Singh is not the only minister causing embarrassment to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's government.
Another minister in his Cabinet has a non-bailable warrant issued against him and has been absconding.
The hunt for Union Minister of State for Water Resources Jai Prakash Narain Yadav has intensified.
Jamui district police arrived in New Delhi on Thursday to arrest J P Yadav.
The non-bailable warrant has been issued against him for his alleged role in the release of RJD candidate and his brother Vijay Prakash Yadav from police custody.
Official sources said the team would conduct raids with the help of Delhi police.
Vijay Prakash was arrested on charges of carrying firearms, cartridges, and detonators during the first phase of the Bihar Assembly elections on October 18.
The district and session judge of Jamui has already rejected J P Yadav's anticipatory bail application on October 27.
Chief Judicial Magistrate R K Srivastava had ordered his remand to 14 days of judicial custody on October 31.
Following a non-bailable arrest warrant against the two, the state government had launched massive raids to arrest them.
