Patna, June 21: Posters featuring 'missing' Tejashwi Yadav, younger son of Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) chief Lalu Prasad, was seen in Bihar on Friday. According to a tweet by ANI, the poster, which was found in Muzaffarpur, announced a reward of Rs 5,100 for the person who finds Tejashwi Yadav. The Lok Sabha Elections 2019, was the RJD’s first election without Lalu on the scene, which was believed to be a test of Tejashwi’s leadership. Tejashwi Yadav Mentions Priyanka Chopra's Wedding Reception to Attack PM Narendra Modi.

After RJD's poor show in Lok Sabha Elections 2019, Tejashwi Yadav has been keeping a low-profile and hardly made a public appearance. Even when the Nitish Kumar- government faces a lot of flak due to rising death cases due to Acute Encephalitis Syndrome (AES) in Muzaffarpur, Tejasvi Yadav, being the opposition leader in Bihar assembly, hasn't been vocal enough against the administration.

Here's the tweet:

A look at Tejashwi Yadav's twitter handle shows that he last tweeted on June 11,  on his father's birthday. In a tweet, Tejashwi wished his father Lalu Prasad Yadav terming him as a great leader of all times.

The posters featuring the RJD leader in Muzaffarpur comes at a time when the city is witnessing rising death cases due to Acute Encephalitis Syndrome (AES). The number of children who have succumbed to suspected AES in Bihar's Muzaffarpur rose to 118 on Thursday. In the wake of the rising death cases, the National Human Rights Commission issued notices to the Union Health Ministry and the state government over the increasing number of deaths.
