The bungalow was allotted to Tejashwi in 2015 after his appointment as the deputy chief minister in the Nitish Kumar-led government in the state. However, he continues to occupy the bungalow even after the Kumar-led Janata Dal (United) broke the alliance with the RJD. The bungalow was reassigned to present Deputy chief minister Sushil Modi in 2017 after the JD(U) formed a coalition with the BJP.
