The Rashtriya Janata Dal has accused Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar of insulting women and disrespecting Mahatma Gandhi and the national anthem.
The Rashtriya Janata Dal trained guns on Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on Saturday by putting up posters outside the residence of former CM Rabri Devi.
In the posters, the party accused Nitish of insulting women and disrespecting Mahatma Gandhi and the national anthem.
"Nayak nahi khalnayak hoon mai (not a hero, I am a villain)" the poster read accusing him of insulting women and disrespecting Mahatma Gandhi and the national anthem.
The development comes after the party came down heavily on the CM over a purported video where he was talking and gesturing while the national anthem was palying during an event in Patna.
Tejashwi Slams Nitish
Party leader Tejashwi Yadav slammed CM Nitish over the video urging him not to insult the national anthem. Sharing the purported video, he said: "At least please do not insult the national anthem, Hon'ble Chief Minister."
"You insult youth, students, women and elderly people every day. Sometimes they clap on Mahatma Gandhi's martyrdom day and mock his martyrdom, and sometimes they clap on the national anthem!" he added.
The former deputy to the Chief Minister further alleged that Nitish was "not mentally or physically stable" saying his condition is a matter of great concern for the State.
"PS: Let me remind you that you are the Chief Minister of a big state. You are not mentally and physically stable even for a few seconds and your being in this position in such an unconscious state is a matter of great concern for the state. Do not insult Bihar like this again and again," he added in a post on X.
The purported video in question, shared by RJD leaders, shows Nitish tapping an official on the shoulder, appearing to engage him in conversation. At one point in the video, he was seen smiling and folding his hands in a namaskar towards somebody in the audience.
