"We welcome the Chief Minister's decision to impose prohibition in Bihar.... He is implementing what he had promised to the people of Bihar ahead of elections," he told reporters here.
Hailing the move, the Deputy Chief Minister took a dig at the BJP saying "the grand alliance is not a 'Jumla Party' as we have delivered on our promise."
"We have been voted to power to work and not be surrounded by people without work," Tejaswi said.

"I will visit PMCH soon to inspect facilities there," Yadav said adding, he will also take strict action against doctors and other officials for deficient services there.
