Patna, the day after 21 September (IANS), a new controversy emerged from the rally of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his late mother, Herben Modi, from the forum of ‘Vote Adhikar Yatra’ in Darbhanga, Bihar, RJD leader Tajshvi Yadav’s rally.
The BJP has claimed that slogans insulted the Prime Minister’s mother were raised during Yadav’s public meeting. However, RJD has dismissed the allegations, stating that the BJP was broadcast a medical video to tarnish its image ahead of an important assembly elections.
On Saturday, Bihar BJP shared a video on X that Tejasvi Yadav was shown addressing a gathering from an RJD stage. In the footage aired by the BJP, a voice in the background can be heard abusing the Prime Minister and his late mother.
“Tejashvi again provided the facility of oral misconduct of Modi ji’s mother at his rally. The more derogatory slogans were raised by RJD workers, as much as Tejashvi encouraged him. RJD-Congress has a program-Mothers and sisters. Post on X.
The Congress came to protect its ally, saying that the BJP’s failure in working against the person responsible for misbehaving with PM Modi and his late mother highlighted the weak rule.
Speaking to IANS, Congress MP Imran Masood said, “Minister of State for Home Affairs, Nityanand Rai, resign first! You can’t catch the addicts – your government is failing. Who is crying?
To identify the citizens to identify that he asked to describe as “deficiencies of this weak rule”, Masood said, “Your (BJP) government has agencies like NIA – so why strict action is not being taken? It has become a spectacle in front of the country; saying, ‘I was abused’; I have abused?”
Uttar Pradesh Congress chief Surendra Rajput also criticized the BJP, while the party had the right to register an FIR, it was “unfortunate” that she was seeking votes in the name of PM Modi’s late mother.
“It is unfortunate that today, BJP is seeking votes from the people of Bihar in the name of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s mother. The mother is respected. The mother who is no longer in this world. If any worker abuses the mother, a cedar should be filed against her.
He further alleged that the people of Bihar would question the BJP for their previous conduct, remembering that when the party had called Bihar Bandh in the name of the Prime Minister’s mother, its own workers had misused the mothers and sisters of Bihar.
Purnia MP Pappu Yadav also weighed, saying that insulting someone’s mother was unacceptable and this action should be taken against those responsible people. He associated the incident with the “derogatory remarks” made by political leaders in the past.
Speaking to IANS, Pappu Yadav said, “It is absolutely wrong to misbehave anyone in any program. This uncontrolled behavior of political laborers weakens the society. It is extremely wrong to use aggressive words for any mother. Whether it is misusing someone’s DNA or casteist comment by PM Modi as it is mentioned by Anurag Thakur.”
“A mother is respectable; you cannot misuse someone’s blood, caste or father. In those videos that have gone viral, people who have used such words, should be expelled from the party, the FIR should be recorded against them, and such people should not be spared, because they are not only enemies of mothers, but also of culture and values,” they said.
The BJP had earlier attacked the RJD-Congress alliance, when a group of youth was heard making derogatory remarks against the Prime Minister on ‘Vote Adhikar Yatra’, which was led by Tejashwi Yadav and Loks Sangh Lop Rahul Gandhi in Darbhanga.
Amid the uproar, PM Modi himself responded, saying, “I want to tell people who abused my mother in front of the people of Bihar – Modi can forgive you once, but the land of Bihar and India has never insulted a mother.”
