In a heated political exchange in Bihar’s Madhubani district, BJP and JD(U) leaders have unleashed sharp criticism against the Congress party, branding its culture as one steeped in violence and thuggery. The controversy erupted during a public event where local Congress leader Rajesh Ram found himself at the center of a scuffle that quickly escalated into chaos.
Eyewitnesses described a tense atmosphere as rival party workers clashed, with accusations flying from all sides. BJP spokesperson Rakesh Sinha didn’t hold back, declaring, ‘This is the true face of Congress – a party that resorts to muscle power instead of democratic dialogue.’ JD(U) echoed the sentiment, pointing to a pattern of aggressive behavior that they claim undermines Bihar’s peaceful political discourse.
The incident unfolded on a bustling stage set for what was supposed to be a routine political address. As Rajesh Ram began speaking, a group of agitated individuals allegedly affiliated with Congress disrupted the proceedings, leading to physical altercations. Videos of the melee have since gone viral, fueling outrage among NDA supporters.
Political analysts note that such clashes are not isolated in Bihar’s volatile election landscape, but this one has drawn particular ire due to the involvement of prominent figures. Congress has countered by alleging provocation from BJP ranks, but the damage to their image appears significant.
As the dust settles, both BJP and JD(U) are leveraging the event to rally their bases ahead of upcoming local polls. Leaders from the ruling alliance have vowed to expose what they call Congress’s ‘goonda raj,’ promising stricter vigilance against such disruptions. For Rajesh Ram and his supporters, the episode serves as a stark reminder of the rough-and-tumble nature of Bihar politics.
