Return of Gunda Raj, security guards throbbed journalists in Bihar in front of Deputy CM.

Patna: Bihar deputy chief minister Tejashwi Yadav launched an onslaught against the media on Wednesday, calling them "disappointed BJP-minded goondas" who were out to break up the ruling grand coalition in Bihar.

Tejashwi has been in the limelight recently because of an array of corruption allegations levelled against him and his family and his involvement with shell companies and benami properties.

Within hours of Tejashwi's verbal attack, his men and personal security guards from Bihar Police thrashed media persons when they posed tough questions to the deputy chief minister.

The incident revives fears of the ill-famed goonda raj of the Lalu-Rabri regime, unleashed in the state for 15 years – from 1990 till 2005. Though JD(U)'s Nitish Kumar is now the chief minister, RJD remains the 'senior member' in the ruling RJD-JD(U)-Congress coalition.
