'This remaining nine-year-old is behaving like a mad bull...': How Lalu turned the tables in 1995, is Rahul-Tejashwi also trying the same political formula?

"Pillai, I am your Chief Minister and you are my officer. Where does this Sheshnava keep leaking in between? ...He sends faxes! We'll blow up all the faxes, let the elections happen." These were the words of the then Chief Minister Lalu Yadav, repeatedly expressing his displeasure over the changes in election dates, to the then Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) RJM Pillai. Just like today, about 31 years ago, the Election Commission itself came under attack from political parties.
