The 2025 Bihar election verdict has left Mahagathbandhan in tatters, fueling divorce rumors between Congress and RJD. Cutting through the noise is Jan Shakti Janata Dal’s Tej Pratap Yadav, whose razor-sharp jabs at Rahul Gandhi have stolen headlines.
Patna reporters cornered him on the alliance future. ‘Congress delayed the split foolishly; they contested and lost big,’ he observed. Then came the zinger: ‘Rahul Gandhi? Expert phatphatiya rider and murga-bhaat chef. Stick to that.’
Tej Pratap painted Rahul as a ‘gutless leader,’ hammering the broken Ayodhya promise. ‘Why avoid Ram Mandir? Scooter escapades only spew fumes, not solutions.’
He endorsed former Congressman Shakeel Ahmad’s ‘insecure coward’ label for Rahul, adding his stamp of approval.
With recriminations flying, he noted the split’s pros and cons remain party matters.
Turning to the NEET student’s untimely death, Tej Pratap pushed for tough justice: ‘Nab the perpetrators pronto and stand by the family with fair verdict.’
Tej Pratap’s unfiltered outburst signals turbulent times ahead for Bihar’s grand alliance, possibly paving way for new political configurations.
