After Tejashwi Yadav‘s claims of being a minor at the time of the land-for-hotels deal, Sushil Modi, senior BJP leader refused to buy his defense. He said that Tejashwi was an adult with a mustache and a beard when he became the owner of the land between 2010-2014. He alleged Tejashwi of owning a four-storied building in Friends’ Colony, Delhi which is ₹115 crore currently.
The BJP leader claimed that the Kochhar brothers had sold a commercial property on 25 February 2005 in the form of a three-acre land in Patna, through 10 sale deeds for Rs 1.47 crore, to Delight Marketing, in which Sarla Gupta, the wife of former Union minister Prem Chand Gupta, was a director.After the tender was awarded to Sujata Hotel, owned by the Kocchars, the ownership of Delight Marketing also changed hands from Sarla Gupta to Rabri Devi and Tejashwi Yadav between 2010 and 2014, he alleged. He has dared Tejashwi to prove these allegations wrong. He further said that Tejashwi is putting all the blame on his father, Lalu Prasad Yadav.
He has urged CM Nitish Kumar to take strict actions against Tejashwi.
