Explanation

Neither + Subject, Nor + Subject + Singular verb is grammatically the correct structure of the sentence. However, the Neither-Nor conjunction is usually used for only two subjects and the verb will always be supplied according to the subject close to it.. The verb is supplied according to the subject close to the verb (This is called rule of proximity) Similarly in the given question, a singular verb will be supplied according to Raju who is a singular subject. Hence, .is staying will be answer.
