"Some People Think...": Tejashwi Yadav Hits Back At BJP's Maithili Thakur

Tejashwi Yadav, the working president of the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), has responded strongly to comments made by singer-turned-politician Maithili Thakur regarding his party's governance in Bihar. Thakur, a prominent figure in the local music scene who has transitioned into politics, criticized the RJD's performance during its time in power, igniting a war of words between the two political figures. In his rebuttal, Yadav highlighted the achievements of the RJD while questioning Thakur's understanding of the political landscape and the issues facing Bihar. Yadav's defense comes at a time when the RJD is gearing up for future elections and seeks to solidify its position against rival parties, particularly the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). This incident reflects the ongoing political rivalry in Bihar, where local leaders are increasingly vocal about their opposition to established parties. The exchange not only underscores the contentious nature of Bihar politics but also illustrates how even cultural figures like Thakur are becoming embroiled in political debates, indicative of the heightened stakes as elections approach.
