Coronation of 'failed product' of dynastic politics: BJP after Tejashwi named RJD working president

The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has voiced strong criticism following the Rashtriya Janata Dal's (RJD) announcement appointing Tejashwi Yadav as its working president. This move has been labeled by the BJP as the coronation of a "failed product" of dynastic politics, a term often used by the party to describe political heirs who ascend to leadership positions due to family lineage rather than merit. The BJP's sharp remarks underscore the ongoing political friction between the two parties in Bihar. Tejashwi Yadav, son of RJD supremo Lalu Prasad Yadav, has been a prominent figure within the party, especially during the times his father faced legal challenges. His elevation to working president is seen by the RJD as a strategic step to strengthen the party's leadership. Supporters argue that Tejashwi has proven his mettle through his leadership during the recent state elections, where he campaigned vigorously and resonated with the youth. Despite the BJP's criticism, analysts suggest that Tejashwi's appointment could consolidate his influence within the party and potentially attract younger voters. The move signifies a generational shift in RJD's leadership, as the party seeks to revitalize its image and political strategy. As Bihar's political landscape evolves, Tejashwi's new role will likely be pivotal in shaping the state's future electoral dynamics.
