Urging his party cadre not to lose heart, Tejashwi Yadav said, "the order passed today is not a finality. We will seek justice before the High Court of Jharkhand. If need be, we will move the Supreme Court".
"Those who run such news reports are fools. We will get to know whatever happens," Lalu Yadav told media when asked if Tejashwi will be made the national president of the party.
RJD said that the party is preparing for a no-confidence motion amid a buzz that Nitish Kumar is likely to amend the liquor ban law.

Amid apprehension of cheating during counting, RJD has sent top leaders in a rank of Tejashwi Yadav, Abdul Bari Siddiqui, Jagadanand Singh and Shyam Rajak to monitor the developments at the counting centres in a bid to prevent "mischief" by the ruling JD(U).

Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) Chief Lalu Prasad targeted Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and said that he was the most arrogant person in the country.
Lalu Prasad arrived in Bihar for the campaign of by-elections for two seats on Sunday evening. While interacting with media in New Delhi, Lalu passed derogatory comments directed at Bhakta Charan Das when asked about claims that RJD is in 'secret talks' with the BJP.
Lalu Prasad Yadav was released from jail a few months ago. He returned to Patna on Sunday after three years. He was accompanied by wife Rabri Devi and daughter Misa Bharti.
RJD leader Tej Pratap also staged a sit-in outside his residence, minutes after he accused his detractors of preventing him from spending time with his father whom he had received at the airport.
