Former Bihar Minister and expelled RJD leader Tej Pratap Yadav, on Sunday, urged the Bihar government and the central government to arrest Mahua MLA and declared that his party, Janshakti Janta Dal, and Bihar Gathbandhan will protest until he is sent to jail.
Speaking to ANI on RJD leader Rohini Acharya's post on X, Tej Pratap Yadav said, "Whoever uses this choice of words about my sister, my mother, or Narendra Modi's mother, has gone mad... Mahua MLA has gone mad. He doesn't realise the weightage of what he is saying... I urge the Bihar government and the central government to arrest him as soon as possible and send him to jail. My party, Janshakti Janta Dal, and Bihar Gathbandhan will protest till he is sent to jail." Earlier today, Union Minister Jitan Ram Manjhi condemned alleged abusive remarks made against Prime Minister Narendra Modi's late mother at a rally in Bihar, and accused opposition leaders of resorting to crude tactics to grab headlines. In an interview with reporters, Manjhi stated that when someone is "distressed", they turn to such "dirty" words and acts, which are extremely "condemnable". "The person who becomes distressed resorts to dirty words and dirty acts in any way. They are resorting to such things, which are extremely condemnable and insulting, to grab headlines," Manjhi said. He further said that the voters of Bihar should watch these actions very closely and give a befitting reply in the elections. Union Minister Giriraj Singh also slammed the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) earlier in the day over alleged abusive remarks made against Prime Minister Narendra Modi's late mother during a rally in Bihar. He accused the RJD of insulting the pride of Bihar and warned that the incident reflects the kind of governance seen under Lalu Yadav in 2005. "It didn't seem strange to me that such a thing happened from Tejashwi Yadav's platform because there is no difference between Rahul Gandhi and Tejashwi Yadav... They have made a very big mistake by using indecent language for the Prime Minister's mother, insulting the pride of Bihar, and showing Lalu Yadav's government of 2005 that if by mistake their government comes to power this time, this is what will happen... Tejashwi Yadav and Rahul Gandhi should apologise for this; otherwise, the people of Bihar will definitely punish them for it," he said. (ANI)
