Tension between Jagadanand Singh, Tej Pratap Yadav continues in RJD

The simmering tension in the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) between the party's state president, Jagadanand Singh, and Tej Pratap Yadav intensified over the Independence Day celebrations on Sunday.

The simmering tension in the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) intensified after the party's state president, Jagadanand Singh, did not turn up at the party office in Patna to attend the national flag hoisting ceremony on Independence Day on Sunday. Jagadanand Singh is reportedly hurt after he was publicly humiliated by RJD supremo Lalu Prasad's elder son Tej Pratap Yadav earlier this week. Tej Pratap Yadav had called the senior RJD leader "Hitler".
