Manoj Jha, RJD Rajya Sabha MP, said the Nitish Kumar government was deliberately not providing security to Tejashwi during rallies.

 

"The security of Tejashwi Yadav is completely compromised at rally venues. People are assembling in large numbers and breaking the barricades. They are reaching out to him even at the helipad. It is a threat to his life apart from creating hurdles in the helicopter operation. Such a situation could lead to an accident," Jha said.

 

He said a letter was sent to the Election Commission on October 21 after a huge gathering was witnessed at a rally of Tejashwi Yadav. The ECI has directed the District Magistrates and Superintendents of Police of all the 38 districts of Bihar to arrange proper security for him, but no security has been given to him, he alleged.
