There is no Democracy in BJP, it is now a Monarchy, Tejashwi Yadav says ahead of Bihar polls

RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav hit out at the Bharatiya Janata Party on Sunday and said that there is no Democracy left in the saffron party and that it is now a Monarchy.

"Whatever two people in Delhi decide, that's what happens... You have not seen many BJP workers getting a place in the organisation, but sons-in-law have definitely secured a place. And they abuse us for nepotism," he said, as quoted by news agency ANI.

Meanwhile, he also slammed Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar over the announcement of the 'Mukhyamantri Mahila Rojgar Yojana'. "He has no vision of his own. He is acting like a Cheat Minister, not a Chief Minister... The people of Bihar have recognised their nature and actions. They will bring a change this time," he said.

Since the last few days, Yadav has been accompanying Congress leader Rahul Gandhi in the Vote Adhikar Yatra that has been going on in Bihar, ahead of the elections that are scheduled to take place in the state later this year.
