"Tejashwi Yadav, Rahul Gandhi should apologise for insulting PM's mother, Bihar will punish them": Giriraj Singh

Patna (Bihar) [India], September 21 (ANI): Union Minister Giriraj Singh on Sunday slammed the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) over alleged abusive remarks made against Prime Minister Narendra Modi's late mother during a rally in Bihar.
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.
Earlier today 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 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)
