Tejashwi Yadav, a former deputy chief minister of Bihar and head of the RJD, brushed off Modi’s spiritual activities at Kanniyakumari on Saturday, calling them nothing more than “photo shoots.”
“Modi ji is merely participating in picture sessions; he is not meditating. They will return after the picture session is over, according to Tejashwi Yadav.
Meditation : is done alone silently, no interference, no disturbance, no show off.
Nautanki : is done by holding a tourist place hostage for PR with dozens of cameras around capturing nautanki from every angle.
