The Bihar Police on Friday reportedly arrested Rafeeq alias Raja, the man who hurled abuses at Prime Minister Narendra Modi during a poll rally in poll-bound Bihar's Darbhanga. A complaint against Raja was registered at the Simri Police Station in Darbhanga on Thursday.
The event at Darbhanga was a part of the Congress-led ‘Voter Adhikar Yatra’, and the stage had posters of Rahul, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra and Tejashwi Yadav. The video of the incident also went viral on social media, leading to a huge controversy.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Thursday, in a strong-worded statement, condemned the alleged abuses hurled at Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his late mother during a Congress-RJD event in Bihar's Darbhanga.
“The use of abusive language filled with expletives against the Honorable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi Ji and his late mother from the Congress and RJD platform in Darbhanga, Bihar, is not only condemnable but also a stain on our democracy,” Amit Shah posted on X.
“From the time of being the Chief Minister of Gujarat until today, the Gandhi family has left no stone unturned in spreading hatred against Modi. However, now they have crossed all limits of propriety. This is an insult to every mother, every son, for whom 140 crore countrymen will never forgive them,” Amit Shah mentioned in his post.
BJP MP and national spokesperson Sambit Patra blamed Rahul Gandhi for the alleged abuses against Modi, saying that the Congress has become a “gali wali party” because the Gandhi family is not able to return to power. "Congress ki galiyon ki dukan seal hogi, aur iski shuruat Bihar se hogi (Congress' shop of abuse will be sealed, and it will start from Bihar)," said Patra.
