The monsoon session of the Bihar Assembly has been marked by heated exchanges between the government and the opposition, culminating in a controversial statement by RJD MLA Vijay Mandal. Mandal accused Chief Minister Nitish Kumar of being the most corrupt leader in Bihar's history and criticized the government's handling of crime and corruption.
Mandal's remarks, which followed the termination of MLC Sunil Singh's membership, included claims that Nitish Kumar had failed in his duties and should resign. He challenged the Chief Minister to terminate his membership, further escalating tensions.
The statement drew sharp reactions from various political figures. BJP MLA Jivesh Mishra condemned the use of unparliamentary language, while JDU MLC Ghulam criticized Mandal's lack of respect for elders. Congress MLC Sameer Singh distanced the party from Mandal's comments, labeling them as his personal opinion.
Vijay Mandal's accusations against Nitish Kumar have intensified the political climate in Bihar, highlighting deep-seated tensions within the assembly. As the monsoon session continues, these developments are likely to influence the state's political discourse significantly.
