Tejashwi seeks ‘national disaster’ tag for Bihar floods; slams Centre over flood relief

RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav accused the Centre of "step-motherly treatment" towards Bihar over flood relief, while seeking a "national disaster" tag for the flood situation. "Whenever there are floods in Gujarat, PM Narendra Modi gives quick assurances of relief," he said. He added that he had written to the PM, seeking immediate financial assistance of ₹5,000 crore for the state.
