Tejashwi Yadav said Droupadi Murmu has not held a single press conference after being chosen as the BJP-led NDA's candidate for Monday's presidential elections.
"We don't want any statue in Rashtrapati Bhavan, we are electing the president. You must have always heard Yashwant Sinha but we have never heard the voice of the presidential candidate of the ruling party," Mr Yadav said.
The RJD has announced its support for Yashwant Sinha, the joint opposition candidate for the presidential poll. The Left and Congress in Bihar have also extended their support for him.
