Union Minister Giriraj Singh on Saturday hit out at RJD leader Tej Pratap Yadav over his "Dance" remarks on a police personnel and said that these are the "successors of Jungle Raj" where even law is helpless at their doorstep.
In a post on X, Giriraj said, "This arrogance, this intimidation, this intoxication of nepotism... Ye to vardi ko bhi apni jaagir samajhte hai (they (RJD) even consider the uniform as their property. These are the successors of Jungle Raj, the law is helpless at their doorstep. Lalu's Jungle Raj." Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader Tej Pratap Yadav celebrated Holi with party workers at his official residence in Patna on Saturday and urged people to observe the festival peacefully. During the celebrations, Tej Pratap Yadav was heard telling the policemen, "Nahi thumka lagaoge to suspend kar diye jaoge." The remarks from the RJD leader ignited criticism from the opposition leaders, including the BJP and JD(U). Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Vijay Kumar Sinha said that the ideology of the people in Rashtriya Janta Dal will never change. "RJD's culture is to flout the law, make fun of people in constitutional posts, insult the Constitution repeatedly, and demoralise people. The ideology and values of people who have been in RJD will never change," Sinha told ANI. BJP spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla claimed that Tej Pratap made the law dance to his tunes. "Like father, like son. Father was the chief minister, the family was in power, and Bihar was kept in jungle raj. He made the law dance to his tunes. Now, he is out of power, but his DNA is the same: he wants to bring back Jungle Raj. Instead of respecting the law and the person wearing the uniform, the way Tej Pratap Yadav has insulted the person wearing the uniform shows that Jungle Raj is in his mindset and DNA, but he should understand that Bihar has changed now. Now there is good governance here," Poonawalla said. Janata Dal (United) national spokesperson Rajeev Ranjan Prasad said that, be it Tejashwi or Tej, Lalu Yadav's family members need to understand that such acts have no place in changing Bihar. "Jungleraaj' has ended, but Yuvraj of Lalu Yadav is threatening a policeman about the consequences if he (the policeman) will not comply with what he is instructing (to dance). Bihar has now changed. Be it Tejashwi Yadav, Tej Pratap Yadav or any of the family members of Lalu Yadav - they need to understand that such acts have no place in the environment of this changing Bihar," Prasad said. JD(U) National Working President Sanjay Kumar Jha said, "The people of Bihar are seeing the condition of the party (RJD). People will vote only for the development." (ANI)
