Journalists were assaulted by Deputy CM Tejashwi Yadav's bodyguards outside the Bihar Secretariat in Patna today.

The incident took place at the Secretariat after the Bihar cabinet meeting ended.

The media had gathered outside Tejashwi Yadav's house for his reaction in connection with the FIR in a corruption case lodged against him and the CBI raids against Yadav properties.

It was at this point that a scuffle broke out between the security personnel of Tejashwi Yadav and journalists.

Reacting on the development, RJD leader Manoj Jha said, "The incident of assault on mediapersons will be investigated."
