BJP slams RJD over PM's mother remark

Slamming the RJD over the alleged objectionable remark made against Prime Minister Narendra Modi's late mother during a rally addressed by Tejashwi Yadav, Union Minister of State for Home Affairs Nityanand Rai on Sunday said that it was not only "unfortunate" but also "shameful" that abuses were again hurled by some RJD workers during Tejashwi Yadav's 'Bihar Adhikar Rally' in Vaishali.

The MoS added that the water was flowing over the head now and Tejashwi Yadav must stop testing the patience of the Bihar voters. He further added the voters of Bihar will certainly teach a lesson to the RJD and its leaders in the coming assembly polls.

The Union minister recalled abuses hurled at PM's late mother during a rally in presence of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav in Darbhanga recently. He said that people are aware about the RJD's alleged misrule between 1990 to 2005. "The people of Bihar will not tolerate the RJD's culture of Gunda Raj," he said.


In a post on X, he said, "Having earned a PhD in abusive language, Tejashwi Yadav and his goons have committed yet another shameful act... This abuse is directed against PM Modi out of frustration over impending defeat. Tejashwi Yadav and RJD members must remember that they have been completely exposed... they will have to face the consequences of hurting the sentiments of 14 crore people of the state."

The incident came weeks after a similar row erupted over abuses allegedly hurled at PM Modi and his late mother during Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's 'Voter Adhikar Yatra' in Bihar.
