BJP leader Giriraj Singh criticized Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader Tejashwi Yadav following the latter’s social media post of a video showing him consuming fish. The video, which surfaced on social media on the first day of Navratri and depicted Tejashwi Yadav eating fish, prompted Union Minister Giriraj Singh to accuse him of engaging in “politics of appeasement.”
“Tejashwi Yadav is a ‘Seasonal Sanatani’, many people, be it Rohingyas or Bangladeshi infiltrators came here when his father (Lalu Yadav) was in power. They do politics of appeasement wearing the mask of Sanatan,” Singh stated on Wednesday.
In a video uploaded on X on Tuesday, Tejashwi Yadav is shown consuming fish alongside Vikassheel Insaan Party (VIP) leader Mukesh Sahni in a helicopter, mentioning that he only has 10-15 minutes to eat amidst campaigning.
In the video, Tejashwi mentioned that because of the heat, he has buttermilk, Bel juice, sattu, and watermelon juice on hand. The caption accompanying his video read, “Food in helicopter amidst the hustle and bustle of election! Date- 08/04/2024.”
Labeling RJD as a “private limited company”, Giriraj Singh stated, “It is their company and to whom they want to give the shares become shareholders. In Bihar, be it infiltrators or Rohingyas, a large number of them have their names on the voter list. I demand a mechanism that denies them the voting rights.”
However, Tejashwi Yadav mocked the BJP, stating that the video post was intended as a test for the ruling party, which they ‘failed’. He pointed out that the video in question was dated April 8, a day before Navratri began.

भाजपाइयों और गोदी मीडिया के भक्तों के 𝐈𝐐 का टेस्ट लेने के लिए ही हमने यह video डाला था और हम अपनी सोच में सही भी साबित हुए। ट्वीट में “दिनांक” यानि 𝐃𝐚𝐭𝐞 लिखा हुआ है, लेकिन बेचारे अंधभक्तों को क्या मालूम? आख़िर में सहनी जी द्वारा मिर्ची लगने का भी जिक्र किया गया है। https://t.co/SmQVLcQgyp

“I uploaded this video to test the IQ of the BJP and Godi media followers and I was proved right in my thinking. The tweet clearly mentioned “Date” but what do the Andhbhakts know?,” Yadav stated in a post on Wednesday.
