NEW DELHI: Rashtriya Janata Dal on Monday refuted the Bharatiya Janata Party 's claim that Bihar 's former deputy chief minister Tejashwi Yadav had stolen furniture including taps, sofas, and beds from the government bungalow and said that these are false allegations.
Earlier today, Bihar BJP Media in-charge Danish Iqbal launched a scathing attack on Tejashwi Yadav's 'upbringing and mentality', accusing that Yadav and his men stole the furniture, including bed and sofas, wash basins and water taps, from the government bungalow at 5 Deshratna Road in Patna before vacating it.
Responding to the BJP's allegations, RJD MP Sudhakar Singh said, "The government should release a list of the things that were given. The BJP is in government and they should release the list and after leaving the space they should see whether the items are there or not. Everything would be clear. BJP is making false allegations and all they want to do is managing media headlines."
He also accused the BJP of removing the news on NIA's DSP being arrested for taking bribes in Bihar by the CBI from the Bihari media.
'Bed is missing, the AC and lights have been removed'
The BJP MLA Iqbal said that the bed, ac, light and even the taps are missing from the government bunglow given to Tejashwi Yadav.
"The base of the bed is missing, the AC and lights have been removed, and the water outlets in the washroom have been taken out. Even the badminton court mat has been taken, and the fountain lights and sofas have been taken. It's clear that when Tejashwi Yadav vacated the house, he took everything with him. This speaks volumes about his mentality," Danish Iqbal said.
"I'm not just accusing him, but it is completely proven. The way Tejaswi Yadav vacated his official residence, shows his upbringing. The way he vacated the house, he has displayed how to loot government's property," he added.
Bihar Deputy CM, Samrat Chaudhary was supposed to move into this bungalow during Navratri, but there were disputes around it beforehand.
Meanwhile, Union minister Giriraj Singh, who hails from Bihar, has slammed the RJD leadership and demanded a detailed probe to establish the scale of 'theft' at the Deputy Chief Minister's residence.
"A person in a public position should not do such derogatory activities... An inquiry committee should be formed to inquire how much money was spent on Tejashwi Yadav's bungalow and a case should also be registered," Singh said.
