Patna:
On Friday, RJD chief Tejashwi Yadav criticized the BJP and Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar for “personal attacks” on him, asking them to focus on real issues such as “unemployment, law, order and migration. “
“Bihar will get nothing by personal attack on me,” said the head of the RJD in a tweet.
“We have been used to these derogatory attacks and inflammatory rhetoric from you for 30 years. Why did you stop updating corona cases, health management, unemployment, quarantine centers and the problems of the poor migrants ? “
His counterattack came a day after Bihar’s Minister of Information and Public Relations, Neeraj Kumar, accused RJD Lalu Prasad’s supremo of having registered land in the name of his son Tej Pratap Yadav, when he was a minor, promising people a job in the government.
“Even after being in power for 15 years, your political job on behalf of my family says that you have nothing to show off. Your disastrous mandate will end very soon. It’s time to tear down the façades and publicize the people of Bihar immortality and corruption, “said Tejashwi in another tweet.
He added: “Nitish Kumar & BJP must focus on the real problems related to unemployment, public order, migration, workers, corruption, communalism, governance, development, education and health infrastructure, etc. This will help Bihar and therefore needs to be treated urgently. “
Neeraj Kumar also alleged that Lalu’s “greed” for the acquisition of Benami properties was evident from the fact that he had registered land in the name of an “unknown third son, Tarun Kumar Yadav, who nobody knows where. it turns out that”.
RJD and Tejashwi’s older sister and member of Rajya Sabha Misa Bharti stated that Tarun Kumar Yadav is Tejashwi Prasad Yadav and that this fact was also mentioned in an affidavit.
Bharti’s clarification on Tarun Prasad Yadav was made during a television interview. Local TV stations are also broadcasting a video clip from a program aired several years ago in which Lalu Prasad is seen with members of his family.
In the program, Tejashwi introduces himself. “Hi, I’m Tarun and I’m studying in class VII”.
RJD MP Bhola Yadav, who is a close confidant of Lalu Prasad’s family, said that the affidavit provided by Tejashwi in the 2015 elections read “Tejashwi Prasad Yadav alias Tarun Kumar Yadav”.
“He (Neeraj Kumar) makes allegations to (RJD) on what basis?” the MP said in a video message on RJD’s WhatsApp group.
Condemning the minister’s statement, the RJD MP demanded that he apologize for spreading “lies”.
Not a single property he mentioned is Benami, said the head of the RJD. In fact, all assets have been mentioned since 1996 in the CBI, the Election Commission and the tax authorities, he added.
Neeraj Kumar, for his part, maintained his allegations and dared Tejashwi to press charges against him if his accusations were false and unfounded.
He also asked how Tejashwi could show the property in his electoral affidavit without first registering it in the name of Tarun Kumar Yadav.
Interestingly, of the two properties in the village of Phulwaria in the district of Gopalganj that were registered in 1993, Tejashwi only mentioned the details of one in his electoral affidavit.
Tej Pratap Yadav also did the same for both properties.
