Chirag Paswan threatens legal action against Tejashwi over reservation remarks

Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas) president Chirag Paswan on Friday threatened legal action against RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav for making "false" statements about the former's stand on reservations.

At rallies, especially in the Lok Sabha constituency of Hajipur which Paswan is contesting, Mr. Yadav has been claiming that the LJP (R) chief has advocated scrapping of reservations for affluent Dalits.

When the attention of Mr. Paswan was drawn to the statement by journalists, he said, "It is false. Tejashwi Yadav is speaking lies at rally after rally. He must stop it, else I may resort to legal action".
