RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav has joined the fitness challenge bandwagon, but with a difference.
Instead of posting a video of him doing any sort of workout, Tejashwi Yadav ‘trolled’ Prime Minister Narendra Modi with barrage of questions and threw a challenge at him to accept the dare!
‘While we have nothing against accepting fitness challenge from @imVkohli . I urge you to accept the challenge to provide jobs to young, relief to farmers, promise of no violence against dalits & minorities. Would you accept my challenge @narendramodi Sir? (sic),’ Yadav said on Twitter.

The fitness challenge that was started by Union Minister Rajyavardhan Singh Rathore has taken a political turn. Not just Yadav, Congress Preseident Rahul Gandhi has also dared the PM with a ‘fuel challenge.’
‘Dear PM, Glad to see you accept the @imVkohli fitness challenge. Here’s one from me: Reduce Fuel prices or the Congress will do a nationwide agitation and force you to do so. I look forward to your response. #FuelChallengetook,’ Gandhi said on Twitter.

Earlier in the morning, PM Modi accepted Kohli’s fitness challenge. "Challenge accepted, Virat! I will be sharing my own #FitnessChallenge video soon," PM Modi tweeted from his personal handle.
The initiative, called the 'Hum Fit Toh India Fit' challenge, was started by Sports Minister Rajavardhan Singh Rathore, who posted a short video of himself doing push-ups.
He tagged Kohli, shuttler Saina Nehwal and actor Hrithik Roshan in the video, challenging them to post their own exercise videos.
Kohli responded to it yesterday by posting a video of his gym training and tagged his actor wife Anushka Sharma, former captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni and PM Modi.
