"Will destroy you like Kansa...": Nityanand Rai slams Tejashwi Yadav over alleged abuses against PM Modi during Bihar RJD event

Hajipur (Bihar) [India], September 21 (ANI): Union Minister of State for Home Affairs Nityanand Rai on Sunday launched a scathing attack against RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav after a fresh video of a man allegedly hurling abuses at Prime Minister Narendra Modi surfaced on the internet.
Nityanand Rai shared the purported video on X, in which, an unknown man can be heard using derogatory language for PM Modi, in 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.
He slammed the RJD leader for repeated abuses against the Prime Minister, as previously, a similar video sparked a political row in the poll-bound State.
He added, "The people of Bihar will soon tame you. Remember, the time is near. I am cursing you today. I am warning you, you unrighteous one. Repeatedly insulting Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who has eradicated poverty from more than 30 crore people in this country."
"Born in a poor, extremely backward family, he is today the most popular leader in the world, who has elevated the thinking and self-respect of India, who is working day and night for the prosperity of the country and Bihar. You are abusing the Bhagiratha of development. You are abusing his revered mother," he said.
He recalled RJD's opposition to the Rath Yatra for 'kar seva' for the Ram Temple in Ayodhya in 1990 and stated that the NDA will beat Tejashwi in his constituency, Raghopur, in the upcoming polls.
Nityanand Rai said, "Remember the day of 1990, Tejashwi. Ask your father, who went to stop the Ram Rath Yatra on this very land of Raghopur, but you failed. But Tejaswi, we will defeat you on the battlefield of Raghopur. We will start by stopping at Raghopur. The people will destroy you on the land of Bihar."
Warning Tejashwi Yadav and Congress against repeated use of alleged derogatory language for PM Modi, he said, "I am warning you, Tejashwi. Rahul of Congress has been doing such things. You are repeatedly abusing the world's most popular leader. This is the crime you are committing."
Further, he slammed RJD over the alleged 'jungle raj' and law and order issue under their regime in Bihar.
"The corrupt Tejashwi-Lalu family, who established the rule of jungle raj, who protects criminals, has perhaps made abuse their etiquette and culture. Jungle raj and corruption...protecting criminals. Now your destruction is near. Today, the people of Bihar are ready and determined to destroy Tejashwi and Rahul," he said.
Earlier, a purported video of a man hurling abuses against PM Modi and his late mother surfaced on the internet, following which the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) had announced a statewide bandh in Bihar on September 4.
These developments come in the run-up to the Bihar Assembly elections to be held later this year; however, the Election Commission of India (ECI) is yet to announce the date. (ANI)
