BJP accuses Tejashwi Yadav for trying to destroy patriotism by eating meat

PATNA: The BJP blamed Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav on India's Independence Day. They alleged that the minister ate meat on Independence Day. BJP spokesperson Arvind Singh said birds and animals were slaughtered on Independence Day. The BJP alleged that Tejashwi ate non-vegetarian food at RJD leader Abdul Bari Siddiqui's residence in Patna on August 15. They exposed a photo of it.

'Slaughter of animals is prohibited on August 15 and sale of liquor is also banned in the country. However, on this day, Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav tried to destroy patriotism by eating meat from RJD leader's house. What sensitivity will he show to the people of Bihar when he has no compassion for animals, tarnishing the spirit of patriotism?' asked Arvind Singh.
