Tejashwi Yadav's remarks came in the backdrop of a press briefing where Bihar Deputy CM Vijay Kumar Sinha claimed that Tejashwi Yadav's aide Preetam Kumar got in touch with an employee of the Bihar Road Construction Department (RCD) to book a room for Sikandar Prasad Yadavendu, the uncle of the arrested NEET aspirant Anurag Yadav.
Commenting on the matter targeting the ruling BJP, Tejashwi Yadav said, "The state government is theirs; the Central government belongs to them. The investigating agencies are under them. I will tell the CM, call my assistant. Whether it is my PA or PS, summon them and conduct an inquiry. The questions that the Deputy CM is raising...the EOU doesn't report to him. They don't know anything", Yadav further added.
