A 21-second video of Deputy Chief Minister of Bihar Tejashwi Yadav is going viral on social media sites.
In the video, he can be heard saying that he will fulfill what his party promised and will provide 10 lakh jobs when he will become the Chief Minister, as of now he is the Deputy Chief Minister.
