Shortly afterwards, she was joined by Tejashwi Yadav, the leader of the opposition in the assembly, who came to express solidarity with his mother and others who were feeling wronged.A former deputy CM himself, Yadav claimed he felt “pity” for his ex-boss, who was “clearly not normal” in terms of his behaviour in public.”Nitish ji gesticulates at the ‘bindi’ my mother wears on her forehead. I have seen him gesticulating in a similar fashion at his own female ministers and legislators. He loses control in the presence of women. He should resign and, maybe, set up an ashram and spend his time giving discourses,” Yadav said.The young leader also recounted incidents of Kumar “falling at the feet” of leaders like the PM and local BJP MP Ravi Shankar Prasad and “making ministers in his cabinet literally bump their heads together”.Yadav also claimed the JD(U) supremo could not hold a candle to Lalu Prasad who was “elected to Parliament in 1977 when Nitish ji, despite the wave in favour of Janata Party, lost his assembly election”.”Nitish ji has no courage. He cannot speak against BJP MLA Hari Bhushan Thakur Bachaul who is asking Muslims to stay indoors on Holi. He switches alliances often but he does so not by sacking those from the party he severes ties with, but by resigning himself and then begging for support,” Yadav alleged.(With inputs from PTI)
