Tejashwi Yadav Narrowly Avoids Drone Strike During Bihar Rally

During a ‘Waqf Bachao, Samvidhan Bachao’ conference in Bihar, opposition leader Tejashwi Yadav had a near miss when a drone, used for coverage, malfunctioned and veered towards the podium where he was speaking. Yadav quickly ducked to avoid being hit. The incident led to a moment of surprise and prompted security to confiscate the drone. With Bihar’s 2025 Assembly elections approaching, surveys indicate a shift in public sentiment, with significant anti-incumbency against the current government. Tejashwi Yadav is emerging as a leading contender, capitalizing on the desire for change, particularly among younger voters. Political strategist Prashant Kishor is also gaining attention, potentially influencing the state’s political dynamics.
