Lalu completely rubbished speculation that he will be stepping down as chief of the RJD. Earlier in the day, Tejashwi’s brother Tej Pratap Yadav also rubbished such talks and said his father will continue to be the president.
Tej Pratap, however, did not confirm Lalu’s participation in the upcoming meeting of the RJD’s national executive on February 10. The party’s meeting will be attended by numerous important persons, he said.
The national executive meeting of the RJD will take place in Patna and will be attended by former Bihar CM Rabri Devi, Tejashwi and other senior leaders.
