Tejashwi Yadav is touring the state as part of "Jan Vishwas Yatra". The yatra commenced on February 20 from Muzaffarpur and would continue for 11 days, during which he will travel all 38 districts of the state.
The Jan Vishwas Yatra will conclude on March 1. Yadav yatra comes ahead of the upcoming Lok Sabha polls, and three weeks after RJD was ousted from power on January 28, when chief minister Nitish Kumar, in his latest about-turn, joined ranks with BJP to form a new government.
Yadav was the deputy CM in the coalition government headed by Nitish Kumar from August 2022 till last month. Taunting his former boss, who is now back in the BJP-led NDA, the RJD leader said, "Nitish Kumar has been uneasy over his JD(U)'s decline and it is rumoured that he wants early dissolution of the assembly.
He believes that if polls are held in the state alongside Lok Sabha elections, it will help him revive his party's fortunes.". (With PTI inputs)Milestone Alert!
