Patna: Expelled RJD leader Tej Pratap Yadav launched an attack against Congress’ ‘Voter Adhikar Yatra’ and alleged that MLA Vijay Kumar Singh’s driver and a media journalist were beaten in Nabinagar in Bihar’s Aurangabad district.
Sharing the video of the alleged assault on Monday, Tej Pratap Yadav slammed Rahul Gandhi and his brother Tejashwi Yadav.
“I can’t understand whether Rahul Gandhi and Tejashwi Yadav have set out to save democracy or to tear it apart. Because the way MLA Vijay Kumar Singh alias W Singh’s driver and a media journalist brother were beaten and abused by Jaychand in the Nabinagar assembly constituency is extremely wrong and shameful,” Tej Pratap Yadav wrote on X.
Condemning the assault, he asked Tejashwi to be cautious of the people around him.
He added, “I strongly condemn this. I want to tell Tejashwi that there is still time. Be cautious of the Jaychands around you, otherwise, you will see very bad results in the elections. Now, how wise you are will be determined by the election results.”
Earlier interacting with media, Tej Pratap stated that nothing will come out from the ongoing Yatra of the Congress party as real issues are different. “Rahul Gandhi and Tejashwi Yadav are leading the yatras and raising their issue, but nothing will come out of these. The real issue should be education, healthcare, and unemployment. These should be the main concerns,” he said.

The ‘Voter Adhikar Yatra’ kick-started on Sunday from Sasaram. The yatra aims to protest against the Election Commission’s Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of the voter list in Bihar and alleged ‘vote chori’. The rally will culminate in Patna on September 1.
Bihar assembly elections are scheduled to be held in October-November this year with NDA alliance parties locking horns with the Mahagathbandhan parties on 243 state assembly seats.
