Amid the speculations of rift between JD(U) and RJD in Bihar, Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav on Monday said that the talks of political crisis are only in the media.

However, JD(U) leader Shyam Rajak on Sunday said that Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar has never compromised on corruption and soon the party will take decision on Tejashwi Yadav who is an accused in the land-for-hotels scandal.

Earlier, Bihar's ruling JD(U) had asked Tejashwi Yadav, an accused in the land-for-hotels scandal, to "come out with facts in public against the accusations."

The Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD)  had already said, "there was no question" of Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Prasad Yadav's resignation in the wake of his name appearing in the CBI FIR in the land-for-hotel case.

The CBI had filed case against Tejashwi in land-for-hotels case. To which, Tejashwi virtually ruled out the possibility of resigning from the state cabinet and dubbed the FIR against him as a part of a “political vendetta”.

“The FIR (in the land-for-hotels case) is part of a political vendetta. BJP president Amit Shah and Prime Minister Narendra Modi are conspiring against me and my family members because of political reasons,” he told reporters.
