Reacting to Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar’s “bizarre antics" during a function with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav raised questions over the state of his mental health.
Tejashwi asked the people of poll-bound Bihar if they want to know the “truth" behind Nitish Kumar’s “erratic" behaviour.
“How does it feel to see the Chief Minister of a state in such a pathetic condition? Do the honorable Chief Minister ji appear mentally healthy to you while engaging in such bizarre antics?" Tejashwi asked in Hindi (translated by Grok) on social media platform, X.
एक प्रदेश के मुख्यमंत्री को इस दयनीय स्थिति में देख आपको कैसा लग रहा है? क्या अजीब हरकते करते मा॰ मुख्यमंत्री जी आपको मानसिक रूप से स्वस्थ दिखाई दे रहे है?क्या साजिशन इनकी ऐसी हालत बीजेपी के इशारे पर इनकी ख़ास भूंजा पार्टी ने प्रसाद या अन्य खाद्य पदार्थ खिलाने के बहाने की है?… pic.twitter.com/1JhRwi8DoR— Tejashwi Yadav (@yadavtejashwi) October 5, 2025
Targeting the BJP, Tejashwi even raised suspicion if the chief minister’s food was being tampered with. “Is it a conspiracy that their party, the special pawn of BJP, has deliberately put them in this state by feeding them prasad or other food items under some pretext? Do the majority of Bihar’s people want to know this truth?" he said.
The former deputy CM, who is now the leader of the opposition, shared a video of the function held in New Delhi, which Nitish attended virtually from his residence. Later, talking to reporters, he said: “For quite some time, the CM has been behaving in a manner that shows he is not in the proper state of mind. He has made crude remarks about my mother Rabri Devi, a former CM herself, besides women in general. Once, he was caught on camera fooling around while the national anthem was being played in the background."
In the video shared by Tejashwi, Nitish can be seen staring with folded hands at his computer screen even as senior BJP leader and deputy CM Samrat Choudhary read out his speech.
“Clearly the CM no longer has the ability to run his government. A syndicate is calling the shots and it will be exposed soon," he said, as reported by news agency PTI.
Reacting to Tejashwi’s comments, JD(U) MLC and spokesperson Neeraj Kumar said: “Nitish Kumar is the one who has restored the political, social and economic health of Bihar. Tejashwi Yadav would do well to worry about his own ailing father Lalu Prasad, the RJD president."
