Tejashwi wasn't present on first-day of Bihar Assembly's Monsoon Session
Tejashwi, who is currently the Leader of Opposition in the Bihar Assembly, was also absent on the first day of the Monsoon Session of the state assembly on June 28. Last week, posters announcing a cash reward for those who bring back Tejashwi were put up in Muzaffarpur after he failed to attend an all-party meeting chaired by the Assembly Speaker.
Tejashwi had been missing from public life since May 28
Tejashwi was last seen in public on 28 May at a post-election review meet before resurfacing on Saturday. The review meeting attended by the former Bihar Deputy Chief Minister was held at his mother Rabri Devi's residence to assess the reasons for RJD's poll debacle.
