Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader Tejashwi Yadav thanked the people after RJD’s candidate Amar Kumar Paswan defeated BJP’s Baby Kumari by a margin of over 36,000 votes in the Bochahan Assembly by-poll on Saturday.
Taking a dig at the NDA, the RJD leader said that the people defeated the ‘anti-people’ policies and arrogance of the parties running the double-engine government in Bihar.

“Hearty thanks to the public owners of Bochahan.

The counting of the votes began at 8 am. The by-election was held on April 12.
