Tejashwi Yadav accuses Prashant Kishor's Jan Suraaj Party of acting as Nitish's 'B-team
New Indian ExpressPATNA: In an apparent dig at Jan Suraaj Party, RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav accused the fledgling outfit floated by former political strategist Prashant Kishor of acting as the 'B team' of the Nitish Kumar-led ruling alliance in Bihar. In a video message on Sunday, hours after police used water cannons to disperse students seeking cancellation of a recent BPSC exam, the former deputy CM, in an apparent reference to the IPAC founder and his party, said the protesters were misled into marching towards Gandhi Maidan. This has resulted in an FIR being lodged against Kishor and Jan Suraaj Party president Manoj Bharti, along with several others. The protesters, who were joined by Kishor earlier in the day at Gandhi Maidan, attempted to march towards the chief minister’s residence in the evening, prompting police action, said Patna District Magistrate Chandrashekhar Singh.
