News India Live, Digital Desk: If there is one leader in Bihar politics who always remains in the headlines for his different style, statements and attire, then he is the elder son of Lalu Prasad Yadav. Tej Pratap YadavSometimes he becomes Krishna Kanhaiya and sometimes Lord Shiva, But this time the matter is not about ‘devotion’, but about ‘batti’,
The news is coming from Patna that this time the electricity department has put aside the ‘system’ and influence on which VIPs often get saved. Electricity has been cut off at Tej Pratap Yadav’s house, and the reason is the outstanding electricity bill worth lakhs.
What happened after all?
The matter is of Beur area of Patna. If we common people do not pay the bill for two months, we do not sleep due to the fear that the line man might come and cut the wire. But if reports are to be believed, the bill for Tej Pratap Yadav’s house is not in thousands, but lakhs of rupees I was in arrears.
When the department officials did routine checking and raid, they found that such a huge bill had not been deposited. What’s more, some reports are also saying that some glitch has been found in the connection (suspicion of bypass or unauthorized use). What happened next, the department employees without any delay kept the ‘VIP culture’ aside and disconnected the connection.
‘Lantern’ party and the taunt of darkness
As soon as this news came out, discussions started in the political circles of Patna and on social media. people are jokingly saying that RJD’s election symbol is ‘Lantern’Maybe that’s why brother didn’t pay much attention to electricity. Opposition parties have also got a chance to taunt while sitting.
a lesson for all
If we look at it this incident also gives a good message. Often we see that the bungalow bills of big leaders and influential people are waived off or no one dares to collect them. But the kind of strictness shown by the Bihar Electricity Department makes it clear that the rules should be the same for everyone, whether he is a minister’s son or a common rickshaw puller.
Now it will be interesting to see whether the lights come back on after paying the fine, or whether Tej Pratap Bhai creates a new political controversy over this. Until then, you better pay your bill on time, otherwise the team can come at any time!
