Tejashwi Yadav's Sharp Rebuke Raises Concerns Over Bihar CM's Role

Tejashwi Yadav criticizes Bihar CM Nitish Kumar, expressing 'pity' over his alleged role as a 'dummy' manipulated by the BJP. Yadav, INDIA bloc’s CM candidate, suggests Kumar's unsound mental state following a slip of tongue about Bihar's district count.

Tejashwi Yadav, the RJD leader, on Wednesday expressed concern over Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar's influence in the state, claiming he is being manipulated by the BJP as a 'dummy.'

While addressing the media, Yadav remarked that the 75-year-old JD(U) leader's mental acuity may be in question, especially after a recent verbal slip where Kumar incorrectly stated Bihar's district count.

This criticism comes in the context of Yadav being the main opposition's chief ministerial candidate, highlighting the political tension as elections approach.
