Tej Pratap Yadav's 'dance or suspension' remark to policeman sparks political uproar


Daijiworld Media Network - Patna

Patna, Mar 16: A viral video of former Bihar minister Tej Pratap Yadav asking a uniformed police constable to dance during Holi celebrations has triggered a major controversy, drawing sharp criticism from NDA leaders.

In the video, Tej Pratap, elder son of RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav, can be heard instructing a constable named Deepak to dance, jokingly warning him of suspension if he refused. "Hey constable, hey Deepak, we will play a song, you have to dance. If you don’t, you will be suspended. Don’t mind, it’s Holi," he said while celebrating the festival in Patna on Saturday.

The incident has reignited political tensions in Bihar, with ruling JDU and BJP leaders slamming the RJD leader’s behavior.

JDU working President and Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Jha remarked, "You can imagine the state of that party (RJD). The people of Bihar are watching everything." JDU chief spokesperson Rajiv Ranjan accused RJD of mistreating government officials, stating, "Earlier, RJD leaders made officers prepare khaini, now they are making them dance."

BJP spokesperson Kuntal Krishna likened the incident to the alleged misrule of Lalu Prasad Yadav’s era. "During the Jungle Raj of his parents, security personnel were forced to sing and dance. Today, Tej Pratap is doing the same."

The controversy has intensified the Jungle Raj vs Good Governance debate in Bihar, with NDA leaders using the incident to attack RJD’s past governance record ahead of the upcoming elections.
