Tejashwi Yadav was visiting Sitamarhi as part of his ‘Jan Vishwas Yatra’, which will last for 11 days, during which he will visit all the 38 districts of the state.

His first public meeting was in Muzaffarpur after which he visited Sitamarhi and today he will also visit Shivhar. His night stay will be in Motihari.

Before leaving for Muzaffarpur – the starting point of the ‘Jan Vishwas Yatra’ – Mr Yadav criticized his former boss and Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, saying he had “no vision for the people of the state”. Pointing to Mr Kumar’s recent reversal when he broke away from ally RJD and joined the alliance with the BJP, he said: “He had no justifiable reason to leave us and go back to the BJP-led NDA .He feels he can trample.” The people’s mandate is at his feet (the mandate understands its own pair of shoes).”

Jan Vishwas Yatra will conclude on March 1.
