"Their internal matter": HAM(S) Santosh Suman over Rohini Acharya's decision to quit politics, "disowns" family
"This is their internal matter. I don't know what is going on between them. I have not heard what she has said but if she has said something like that, then it is unfortunate. The mandate given by the people should be accepted by all of us. One should not be in such despair," Santosh Suman told ANI.

Patna (Bihar) [India], November 16 (ANI): Hindustan Awam Morcha (Secular) leader Santosh Suman on Sunday said that RJD leader Rohini Acharya's decision to quit politics and disown her family is their "internal matter."
He further termed it as an "unfortunate" incident.
"This is their internal matter. I don't know what is going on between them. I have not heard what she has said but if she has said something like that, then it is unfortunate. The mandate given by the people should be accepted by all of us. One should not be in such despair," Santosh Suman told ANI.
His remarks came after Tejashwi's sister alleged that she was "disgraced, abused, and even hit" when she raised questions regarding the party's defeat in the recent Bihar Assembly elections.
She sparked a firestorm with her explosive social media posts explaining the pain of being ostracised, of being made to feel worthless, the burden she carries.
In an emotional post on X, Rohini claimed that she was "humiliated," "abused," and even faced the threat of being hit with a slipper. Rohini, a devoted daughter, sister, wife, and mother, stood up for her rights and dignity. Her family and community expected her to compromise, but she refused to betray her values. The backlash was brutal - verbal abuse, physical threats, and ultimately, expulsion from her parental home.
"Yesterday, a daughter, a sister, a married woman, a mother was humiliated, abuses were hurled, shoes were raised to kill her... I didn't compromise on my self-respect, didn't give up on truth... just because of this, I had to face insults. Yesterday, a daughter left her crying parents and siblings due to helplessness... she was forced to leave her parental home... she was made an orphan... I pray that none of you ever have to walk my path, and no house should have a daughter-sister like Rohini," she wrote.
However, there has been no immediate response from the RJD or members of the Yadav family regarding Rohini's allegations.
The comments come at a time when political developments in Bihar are drawing heightened public attention, as the ruling NDA got 202 seats, a three-fourths majority in the 243-member House. (ANI)
