Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar condemned the offensive language directed at Prime Minister Narendra Modi during Rahul Gandhi's 'Voter Adhikar Yatra' in Bihar. The incident, reported in Darbhanga, sparked outrage from the BJP, with leaders promising political consequences.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah described the alleged abuse as a 'stain' on democracy, while BJP spokespersons criticized Rahul Gandhi, emphasizing the need for decorum in political discourse.
