Yadav alleged he was arrested due to political reasons and said “lockdown” was being used as a cover for it.
Yadav also claimed that people have woken up due to the Covid crisis and the BJP led government has “killed itself with an ax on its foot.” This crisis, therefore, will hit “Modi-Nitish” heavily, he said in another tweet.
