A crowd blocked the convoy of Bihar's Deputy Chief Minister Vijay Kumar Sinha in his constituency, Lakhisarai

After his convoy was attacked in Lakhisarai, Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Vijay Kumar Sinha on Thursday said he will not let “Jungle Raj” prevail in Bihar.

Sinha, a three-time MLA, who is contesting the Bihar Assembly elections from the Lakhisarai seat, claimed the assault was carried out by RJD supporters. The BJP leader, who is contesting from his home seat this time too, was visiting polling booths as Bihar votes in the first phase of a high-voltage Assembly election.

The crowd reportedly hurled slippers and chanted "murdabad", forbidding him from going ahead.
