Patna: The RJD leader, Tejashwi Yadav, is currently vacationing with his family in a foreign country. However, his trip is not without its complications back home. A senior party member has raised concerns about Tejashwi's leadership following the party's defeat in the recent Bihar assembly election.
Shivanand Tiwari, a prominent member of the RJD and known for his close relationships with both Lalu Prasad and Nitish Kumar, has accused Tejashwi's aides, Sanjay Yadav and Jagdanand Singh, of misleading him and keeping him out of touch with the ground reality. This, according to Tiwari, ultimately led to the party's defeat in the election.
Tiwari recently took to social media to congratulate Tejashwi on his wedding anniversary, but also used the opportunity to express his concerns about his leadership. He urged Tejashwi to return to Bihar and resume his work on the ground.
In a post on social media, Tiwari wrote, "Lalu Yadav is not the leader that you deserve. He only rose to fame after the Mandal Commission and the arrest of Advani in 1990. Despite this, the RJD's seat count reduced to just 22 in the 2010 Bihar assembly election."

"Tejashwi, you abandoned the field. Your actions have disheartened your colleagues and supporters. Sanjay Yadav and Jagadanand Singh have blinded you and taken advantage of it."
Tiwari advised Tejashwi to return to Bihar immediately and travel throughout the state, not as a leader, but as a party worker. He stressed the importance of time and reminded Tejashwi that as Lalu Yadav's son and heir, the responsibility of leading the RJD now falls on his shoulders.
Meanwhile, Union Minister and BJP leader Nityanand Rai commented on Tejashwi's leadership, saying, "When was Tejashwi Yadav ever connected to the ground reality? His childhood was spent in luxury and comfort, not playing in the mud. Now, even his own party members are accusing him of being blindfolded, which shows a lack of conscience and foresight."

Rai went on to claim that Tejashwi's privileged upbringing has prevented him from understanding the struggles and realities of life at the grassroots level, which are crucial in Bihar politics. "When Tejashwi's own leader is saying that his eyes are blindfolded, it directly means that he lacks both wisdom and foresight," he added.
