“The viral video shows RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav saying he needs power after the election and that he does not bother about the people.”
What FACTLY found
The viral video is clipped. In the full version, Tejashwi Yadav was responding to a media question about Chirag Paswan and Jitan Ram Manjhi, criticising them and the NDA government for being power-hungry and not being concerned about issues like unemployment and inflation. He was not referring to himself or his party.
