"Person who becomes distressed resorts to dirty words to grab headlines": Union Minister Jitan Ram Manjhi

Patna (Bihar) [India], September 21 (ANI): Union Minister Jitan Ram Manjhi on Sunday 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.

Earlier, Union Minister Giriraj Singh slammed the RJD over alleged abusive remarks made against PM Modi’s late mother. 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.

Meanwhile, Nityanand Rai shared a purported video on X in which an unknown man can be heard using derogatory language for PM Modi in the presence of Tejashwi Yadav during RJD’s public meeting in Bihar.

Addressing reporters, the Union MoS referred to Tejashwi as the mythological characters ‘Kans’ and ‘Kaliya Naag’ and said that the public will give him a befitting reply in the upcoming Legislative Assembly elections.

“Tejashwi Yadav’s goons have committed a grave sin by abusing PM Narendra Modi and his revered mother in front of him. By repeatedly abusing PM Narendra Modi and his mother, these people are causing havoc. Tejashwi, we will destroy you like Kansa. The people of Bihar will soon destroy you with their votes. You are spewing venom like the Kaliya Naag,” Rai said.

Bihar BJP President Dilip Jaiswal claimed that this reflects the distress and fear of defeat among the INDI alliance, the RJD, and the Congress. He stated that Bihar’s people reject such behaviour, and the BJP will expose Yadav for his remarks.

“The Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s late mother was abused in Tejashwi Yadav’s rally. People of Bihar don’t at all accept it, and this tells how the INDI alliance, RJD and Congress are all distressed and fear their loss, which leads to such abusive language. BJP will expose Tejashwi Yadav for this,” he said. (ANI)
