In a potential game-changer for Bihar politics, RJD’s National Executive is meeting in Patna today, with Tejashwi Prasad Yadav tipped for executive president position. Reliable party sources suggest Lalu Yadav, considering his age and health, plans to entrust the party’s operations to his younger son during this high-stakes session.
The assembly hall is packed with top brass: state leaders, lawmakers, and national figures deliberating on organizational overhaul. Lalu will open proceedings, setting the tone for discussions on current national events and strategic planning ahead.
This post-election summit addresses RJD’s underwhelming performance in November polls. A comprehensive review report might trigger disciplinary measures against around 300 underperformers, as handed over by state chief Mangni Lal Mandal to Tejashwi.
Expect announcements on key posts like provincial president and secretary general, fortifying the leadership core. Tejashwi’s rare Saturday office appearance underscores his active role post-defeat.
Tensions simmer with Rohini Acharya’s public critique of Tejashwi’s stewardship on social platforms, highlighting familial rifts. Breaking his self-imposed gag order, Tejashwi slammed Nitish government and BJP for failing on crime control, countering claims linking his travels to rising offences.
JD(U) spokesperson Neeraj Kumar retorted sharply, questioning Tejashwi’s credibility. The outcome of this meeting could redefine RJD’s trajectory, positioning Tejashwi as the undisputed face against the ruling alliance.
