Yadav, who is currently the Leader of Opposition in the Assembly, was not present on the first day of the monsoon session of the Bihar Assembly.

“Friends! For last few weeks, I was busy undergoing treatment for my long delayed ligament & ACL injury. However, I’m amused to see political opponents as well as a section of media cooking up spicy stories,” he tweeted.

The former Deputy Chief Minister has been missing from public life since May 29, when he attended a Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) review meet to assess the reasons for the party’s Lok Sabha election debacle.
