Health Minister of Bihar, Tej Pratap Yadav has also been seen with Kaif. Appearance of Tej Pratap with Kaif drew severe criticism from BJP.
BJP politician Sushil Kumar Modi taunts Tej Pratap saying ‘Bade miyan’ (Lalu ji) is roaming with Shahabuddin and ‘chhote miyan’ (Tej Pratap) is roaming with Mohammad Kaif. ‘Bade miyan toh bade miyan, chote miyan subhanallah’” and asked on Twitter why the state government is silent on this.
