![Best Way to Avoid Someone on a Flight](https://img.etimg.com/thumb/msid-110775328,width-300,height-225,imgsize-47996,resizemode-75/best-way-to-avoid-someone-on-a-flight.jpg)
No one knows what words Nitish Kumar and Tejashwi Yadav exchanged during their Wednesday flight from Patna to Delhi. But assigned a seat behind the Bihar chief minister, the RJD leader was visibly awkward. Especially since unlike other public spaces, removing oneself from an airborne plane, not the biggest of spaces to hide away inside anyway, wasn't an option.
Kumar did the smart thing by making the first move when he greeted his former deputy. By making that first move, he took the higher social ground, gaining the confidence to even call his estranged 'bhatija' to sit and chat in the seat next to him.
Remember, Kumar hasn't been Yadav's favourite 'chacha' since the former Paltu Ram-ed to return to NDA, leaving the JD(U)-RJD-Congress mahagathbandhan seat-belted. So, it's best to grab the narrative and 'get over with it' when it comes to 'seat-sharing' on flights. Avoiding the person only lengthens the discomfiture.
