Tejashwi Yadav Slams Modi-Nitish Government Over Rising Crimes Against Women and Girls in Bihar

Patna: Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader and Leader of Opposition in the Bihar Assembly, Tejashwi Yadav, has once again launched a sharp attack on the state’s “double-engine” government led by Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Highlighting a series of recent crimes against women and minor girls, Yadav released a list of 14 disturbing incidents and demanded a response from the government.

Social Media Post Sparks Controversy

Tejashwi Yadav posted the list on social media, criticizing the government’s alleged failure to protect citizens. In his post, he wrote: “In the so-called Ram Rajya created by the Modi-Nitish government, such heinous incidents are occurring daily that even the media struggles to report them. From a 1.5-year-old girl to 11-year-old children, hundreds of minors have faced sexual assault, as the administration fails to act while criminals thrive under its protection.”

Warning Ahead of Elections

Taking a direct dig at the Prime Minister, Yadav warned: “Now Modi ji will visit Bihar during elections and leave the state’s reputation tarnished. His silence over these recent heinous incidents in just a few days proves that rapists enjoy protection from the powers that be.”

List of Recent Cases Highlighted

Tejashwi’s list includes shocking incidents from various districts:

• Saharsa: Sexual assault of a 1.5-year-old, including insertion of a rod.
• Kishanganj: Sexual assault of a six-year-old girl.
• Darbhanga: Rape of a minor girl followed by brutal murder.

Criticism of Government’s Response
