Bihar Traffic Police has issued a challan of ₹4000 against Bihar’s former Health Minister and Rashrtiya Janata Dal (RJD) MLA Tej Pratap Yadav for not wearing a helmet while riding a scooter around the Chief Minister’s house.
The insurance and pollution certificate of the scooter had lapsed, they said. The RJD MLA was allegedly seen taking a ride on the vehicle on Saturday (March 15, 2025) outside Bihar Chief Minister’s residence in Patna while celebrating Holi.
Speaking to ANI, Traffic Police SHO Brajesh Kumar Chauhan said that a total fine of ₹4000 has been imposed on Yadav. “A video went viral on social media showing the rider on a scooter without a helmet. The insurance and pollution certificate also expired. A total fine of ₹4000 has been imposed,” Chauhan said.

Meanwhile, the Bihar Police today removed Constable Deepak Kumar from duty as the bodyguard of RJD MLA Tej Pratap Yadav after a purported video of him dancing in public on the MLA’s instruction went viral on social media.
In an official press release dated March 16, Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) of Patna, informed, “When the matter of bodyguard (constable) Deepak Kumar dancing in a public place in uniform at the behest of Tej Pratap Yadav, MLA, Bihar Legislative Assembly, which went viral on social media, came to light, bodyguard constable Deepak Kumar was sent to Police Station, and an order was given to depute another constable in his place as bodyguard.”
BJP leaders, including MP Dinesh Sharma, slammed the RJD leader for disrespecting the police.
