'Insult to Chhath' Row Erupts in Bihar: PM Hits Out at Congress, RJD
Rahul Gandhi’s remark on Chhath Puja has snowballed into a major political flashpoint in Bihar. A day after Rahul’s comments in Muzaffarpur, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, speaking in the same district, accused the Congress and RJD of insulting the deeply revered festival and ignoring the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya. The BJP has now turned the controversy into a campaign weapon, linking it to issues of faith and culture. The Congress, however, has dismissed the outrage as political distortion, blaming the BJP for twisting Rahul’s words.
