"Sab koi jae bhaad mein, apan kursi ke jugaad mein": Tejashwi Yadav takes dig at Nitish Kumar

Patna (Bihar) [India], March 10 (ANI): Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader Tejashwi Yadav on Monday criticized the Nitish Kumar-led Bihar government over the BJP MLA's statement asking Muslims to stay indoors on Holi.
Taking a dig at Nitish Kumar, Yadav said that the latter only cares about power. "He doesn't care about anything. Sab koi jae bhaad mein, apan kursi ke jugaad mein."
Speaking to the media, Yadav said, "I want to say that the way BJP's MLA said that Muslims should not go outside their homes on Holi...How can he say this? Where is the Chief Minister? He is in an unconscious mode. When women raise their voices for their rights, he scolds them. Did he have the courage to scold the MLA?"
He claimed that the BJP has a strong influence on its NDA ally JDU, stating, "There is a lot of BJP and Sangh influence on JDU; pure Sangh aur BJP ke rang mein JDU aa chuka hai."
"This country believes in Ganga-Jamuni Tehzeeb. The country believes in Ram and Rahim. This is Bihar. One Muslim brother will be protected by five Hindus here. As long as our party and followers of Lalu Yadav's ideology exist, we will not let them fulfill their agenda," he added.
This comes after Haribhushan Thakur Bachaul, the BJP MLA from the Bisfi Assembly constituency, sparked a controversy after he purportedly "appealing" to Muslims to "stay indoors" on Holi, which coincides with a Friday during Ramzan.
He said that there are 52 Fridays in a year, and one of them coincides with Holi. He further appealed to Muslims to allow Hindus to celebrate the festival and not take offense if colors are smeared on them.
If they have such a problem, they should stay indoors. This is essential for maintaining communal harmony, the BJP MLA added. (ANI)
