PATNA: Allegations of consumption of liquor in dry Bihar have lately become a bone of contention between RJD chief Lalu Prasad ’s family and the ruling JD(U).On Wednesday Lalu had alleged that all spokespersons of JD(U) keep liquor in their homes while his younger son Tejashwi Prasad Yadav on Thursday alleged that JD(U) is sheltering the liquor mafia as the party has not taken any significant action in the matter related to hooch accused and former JD(U) block president Rakesh Singh's selfie with CM Nitish Kumar last Sunday at 1, Aney Marg.On Friday, JD(U) fielded its army of spokespersons to launch a scathing attack on Lalu's family. While JD(U) state chief spokesperson Sanjay Singh came up with a photograph of Tejashwi standing with a girl and a bottle of beer in his hand, spokesperson Neeraj Kumar alleged that Tejashwi does not stay in Bihar Bhawan when he goes to New Delhi and he stays at private accommodations where liquor can be consumed easily.Launching a veiled attack on Tejashwi, Sanjay said: "A photograph of Tejashwi with liquor bottle in his hand had gone viral some time ago. We are certain that he still consumes liquor. Lalu should get the blood test done of his son, which would make things clear."Cornering Tejashwi furthermore, Neeraj said: "When Tejashwi goes to Delhi then he gets various facilities based on the protocol for the leader of opposition in Bihar Legislative Assembly, but why doesn't he stay at Bihar Bhawan? He should tell where he stays in Delhi."The JD (U) spokespersons also challenged Lalu to search their houses for liquor and in turn allow them to search the houses of RJD chief’s family. "We give an open challenge to Lalu to search our houses if he thinks that we keep liquor. But Lalu should also allow us to search his house. Things would get pretty clear then," Neeraj said.Meanwhile, the BJP also jumped in, with its Bankipore MLA, Nitin Navin, asking Tejashwi to explain the allegations made against him. "We are not surprised over the allegations being made against Tejashwi. He has been given such culture and upbringing. Nonetheless, he should come forward and give explanation for the allegations against him," Nitin said.Tejashwi, on the other hand, refuted all charges. "The photograph was taken somewhere in 2010 when I used to play cricket. It was taken in one of the IPL’s post-match parties. I don't know the girl personally. Moreover, I do not understand what is wrong with the photograph," Tejashwi said, adding that the photograph has been used by the BJP since 2012 on social media to malign his image.
