Sushil Modi shared an update regarding the Twitter action against Rohini's account, and Tej Pratap Yadav joined the faceoff by bringing up the plight of Bihar amid Covid crisis.


"A matter of happiness isn't it? You are in the government, you must consider yourself a successful leader and in this pandemic, when you should think about the poor health services in Bihar, about protecting the public from starvation, you are busy misbehaving with our sisters and getting their accounts locked," he wrote in his tweet.



It all began with a tweet by Sushil Modi attacking Tejashwi Yadav after the latter announced about setting up a 50-bed Covid Care Centre at his government bungalow.


“Tejashwi Yadav has two sisters MBBS doctors in his family. Why were their services not taken during the Corona infection times? If the RJD leadership has so seriousness and readiness to serve the poor, permission would have been first taken from the government to start the hospital and its standards would have been followed,” Modi had tweeted.



The former Deputy CM posted several tweets attacking Tejashvi over the same and responding to the attack, Rohini Acharya wrote a series of tweets targeting Sushil Modi while using derogatory language against him.


Reacting to this, Modi reported her account to Twitter and the microblogging platform took action against it.


Now how this back and forth between Lalu Yadav's family members and Sushil Modi conclude, remains to be seen.


Meanwhile, the Covid-19 death toll in Bihar rose to 4,339 on Friday with 98 fresh fatalities even as the number of people testing positive in the state continued to show a downward trend.


The second wave has proven to be deadly for the state, where the death toll has risen by more than two-fold in the past month.
