9-AUG-ENG 8

RAJIV NAYAN AGRAWAL

ARA--------------------------The arrival of Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) National Working President and Leader of the Opposition, Tejashwi Yadav, in Jagdishpur proved to be an energizing moment for local party workers and supporters. While his convoy was passing through the Jagdishpur Assembly constituency en route to Dinara—where he was going to offer condolences to the bereaved family of the late Chandeshwar Chaudhary—the affection and enthusiasm of the local public were remarkable. Supporters of former Jagdishpur MLA 'Bhai Dinesh,' along with party workers, well-wishers, and admirers, made the occasion memorable.

A grand welcome began the moment Tejashwi Yadav entered the Jagdishpur area. From Khadra Mor near Bihiya to Naya Tola Mor and up to Sonvarsha—the constituency's border—large numbers of party workers gathered to greet the Leader of the Opposition. Supporters demonstrated their loyalty and backing by garlanding him and presenting him with traditional stoles (*angavastras*) and tokens of welcome.

Throughout the event, the entire Jagdishpur region resonated with thunderous slogans. The gathered crowd chanted in unison, "Long live Tejashwi Yadav, the popular leader of Bihar" and "Long live Tejashwi Yadav, the next Chief Minister of Bihar." This enthusiasm clearly indicated that Tejashwi Yadav's acceptance and influence among the general public are steadily growing. Tejashwi Yadav, in turn, expressed his gratitude to the workers and supporters, graciously accepting the welcome and acknowledging everyone present. Local leadership played an active role across the various stages of the welcome program. At Khadra Mor, hundreds of party workers—including Umashankar Singh, Hridayanand Singh, Kiran Singh, Lal Bahadur Singh, Narendra Singh, Guddu Kumar, Arvind Singh, Santosh Mishra, Anil Singh, Pappu Kumar, Sunu Singh, and Umesh Singh—were present to extend their welcome.

Meanwhile, at Naya Tola Mor, dedicated workers such as Virendra Singh, Ajay Kumar, Birbal Paswan, Subas Yadav, Raju Singh, Rajkumar Singh, Nayak Singh, Anjani Singh, Shailesh Kumar, Madan Singh, Laxman Singh, Hanuman Singh, Manji Singh, Parmeshwar Singh, Dheeraj Singh, Binod Singh, Anil Singh, Upendra Singh, and Mantu Yadav took charge of the grand reception.

A massive wave of public support was also witnessed at Sonvarsha—the region's farthest boundary—where dozens of workers, including Bhagat Singh, Umesh Singh, Lal Babu Singh, Manjay Singh, Dheeraj Kumar, Lali Ram, Md. Jalauddin, and Rampravesh Singh, accorded a warm welcome to Shri Tejashwi Yadav.
