The interlude came after a charged finale to the ‘Voter Adhikar Yatra’, which spanned 25 districts and saw Tejashwi Yadav and Rahul Gandhi cover more than 1,300 kilometres over 16 days to amplify the Opposition’s vote theft charge against the BJP and Election Commission.

The closing rally in Patna witnessed a show of strength from the opposition INDIA bloc, including Jharkhand Chief Minister Hemant Soren, Shiv Sena’s Sanjay Raut and Left leaders Annie Raja, MA Baby and Dipankar Bhattacharya.

Sharing his experience on X, Tejashwi wrote, “Amidst heat, rain, and humidity, the 16-day Voter Rights Yatra concluded yesterday. At night, my nephew who came from Singapore said, ‘Let's go for a drive.’ On the way, we met some young fellow artists on the road. They were singing songs, making reels.”

गर्मी, बारिश और उमस के बीच कल 16 दिनों तक चली वोटर अधिकार यात्रा समाप्त हुई। रात्रि में सिंगापुर से आए भांजे ने कहा ड्राइव पर चले।

रास्ते में सड़क पर कुछ युवा साथी कलाकार मिले। वो गाना गा रहे थे, रील्स बना रहे थे। आग्रह करने लगे तो हमने भी हाथ-पैर आजमाए।

"When they insisted, we too tried our hand at it. With ease, simplicity, and accessibility, we will march in step with the expectations, aspirations, dreams, and hopes of the youth, rising above caste and religion, resolving to build a new Bihar and bring about a change in power,” he added.

Invited to join, Yadav enthusiastically participated, learning trending dance moves and even mimicking Bollywood actor Hrithik Roshan's signature steps. The RJD leader was also seen interacting with youngsters, enjoying kulhad chai, and discussing schemes he had launched during his tenure in the Bihar government.

The clips and posts sparked reactions from social media users. One wrote, “Even after being such a big leader, there is neither arrogance nor ego in Tejashwi Yadav ji, this is the hallmark of a true and good leader. The future chief minister of Bihar, Tejashwi Yadav, is a person of a very simple nature.”

Another user added, “Patna's Marine Drive and Tejashwi Ji's simple and approachable style among the youth there... The real strength of leadership is this — walking step by step with the enthusiastic youth. The energy of the youth is Bihar's true capital, and Tejashwi Ji recognizes that capital and nurtures it too.”
