It is not everyday that you get to see your favourite political personality in person. Imagine bumping into the Grammar Nazi Shashi Tharoor or the ever-charming Raghav Chadha on your way somewhere or visiting an event. A similar incident took place when a woman in Bihar got a glance of Janshakti Janta Dal (JJD) chief Tej Pratap Yadav.
The elder son of Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) supremo Lalu Prasad Yadav was on a visit to the book fair held at Patna’s Gandhi Maidan on Monday. He inspected the stalls and leafed through books on religion and spirituality. Crowd gathered to meet and greet Tej Pratap in the evening while some also took selfies with him.
Woman Fan Approaches Tej Pratap Yadav
Among them was a woman who spoke to Tej Pratap in length. She walked up to the leader and said, “Hello sir, I am a great fan. I have been watching all the rallies. It was great watching you. You are amazing. The way you inspire people is amazing.”
When asked about her, she informed that she hails from Patna and is a BPSC (Bihar Public Service Commission) aspirant. The interaction went on as they discussed various books and the Bhagavad Gita. Towards the end of their conversation, Tej Pratap suggested, “Shlok padhiye, uska meaning jaaniye (Read shlokas and understand their meanings.)”
Social media was quick to react to the video and enjoyed the ‘roasting’. One of them said, “Slokaas, not slok.” Another mentioned, “Shloka Nahi, SHLOK Padhiye.” Someone also added, “Tej Pratap cooked her nicely.”
JJD’s Post On Instagram
JJD posted pictures of Tej Pratap from the outing on Instagram and wrote, “Today, Honourable National President Shri Tej Pratap Yadav visited the Patna Book Fair organised at Gandhi Maidan. He had the opportunity to browse and read books on philosophy, politics, literature, economics and other subjects, and also to meet with book enthusiasts and learn about some special books.”
The party also appealed to the youth of the state to ‘take some time out and visit the Patna Book Fair at least once’. “Books are our best friends; they provide us with knowledge, entertainment, and life lessons, which enhance our imagination and critical thinking abilities, leading to our overall development,” JJD added.
