Patna, 24th Sept. After Union Home Minister Amit Shah accused Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar of “backstabbing” the BJP to join the RJD and warned of the return of “jungle raj,” Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav dubbed his speech a “comedy show” on Friday.
The RJD leader also claimed that Shah came to Bihar to “vitiate” the atmosphere.
“He was neither talking like a country’s home minister nor a politician. His entire speech was a comedy show. He didn’t mention anything about inflation and unemployment. Earlier, too, I had said that he would mostly talk about meaningless things,” Yadav said in response to journalist questions about Shah’s speech during the day.
Speaking at a BJP rally in Purnea, Union Home Minister Smriti Irani slammed former ally Nitish Kumar, accusing him of betraying the BJP and trying to fulfill prime ministerial ambitions while sitting in the laps of the Congress and RJD.
Shah also claimed that Kumar and RJD president Lalu Prasad’s “jodi” will be “wiped out” (soopda saaf’) in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, and that the BJP will win a majority on its own in the assembly elections a year later.
He warned that Bihar is in danger of “jungle-raj.”
“Prime Minister Narendra Modi had said in a rally in Purnea in 2014 that special attention would be given to Bihar,” the RJD leader said, “but he (Amit Shah) made no mention of that or talked about inflation or unemployment.”
“Bihar’s people are being duped by Shah. He came to Seemanchal to pollute the environment and sow discord among communities “Yadav asserted.
The deputy chief minister sought to remind the Union minister that crime in the national capital was “much higher” than in Bihar.
On what basis does he (Shah) keep talking about jungle raj? The rate of crime in Delhi is much higher than that of Bihar. And law and order of Delhi is a central government subject. He must go through the data of the National Crime Record Bureau before commenting on Bihar,” Yadav added.
