JD(U) MP from Sitamarhi has been widely shared on social media, where he is seen ranting and venting out his disappointment with the Muslim and Yadav community in Bihar. JD(U) MP Thakur questioned why he should not see the lantern (RJD's symbol) and Lalu Yadav's face in theirs (Muslim and Yadav community), similar to how they saw Narendra Modi's image in the arrow (JDU's symbol)."Those (from Muslim and Yadav communities) who want to come can come, have tea and snacks, and then leave, but don't expect any help.
