In a heated political battle, JD(U) spokesperson Neeraj Kumar is pushing back against a defamation notice issued by RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav, accusing the latter of employing 'intimidatory legal tactics.'

The notice, served on October 24, alleges Kumar's remarks regarding Yadav's alleged income discrepancies are defaming. Kumar's legal team argues the notice is an attempt to silence critique.
