Former Bihar Chief Minister and Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) chief Lalu Yadav is having sleepless nights. This time, because of dogs. On Monday (4 September) , the New Indian Express reported, Lalu Yadav requested Rajendra Institute of Medical Science (RIMS) to shift to another ward.
According to the report, Yadav is unable sleep due to the "incessant barking of dogs" near the super specialty ward of the hospital where he is admitted. The barking of dogs, according to RJD legislator Bhola Yadav, is having an adverse effect on his health. "He said Lalu Yadav has requested the hospital authorities to shift him to a paying ward of the RIMS," the report says.
NDTV reported that Lalu Yadav is afraid of dogs and mosquitoes at the ward. He also said that he has a fear of dengue. As expected, his opponents have taken a dig at Lalu. Janata Dal (United) has said that Bihar janta was afraid of Lalu Yadav during his rule.
According to the same report, JD(U) spokesperson Neeraj commented saying that Lalu, after pleading to stay out of courts, is now expressing his fear of mosquitoes and dogs. "Boye ped babul ka, to aam kahan so hoye (you shall reap as you sow)," he said.
