Gaali politics is back in focus in Bihar. Weeks after Prime Minister Narendra Modi accused the RJD-Congress alliance of insulting his mother, late Heeraben Modi, the BJP has made a fresh charge that slogans abusing the Prime Minister's mother were raised at RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav's rally.
RJD, the main opposition in Bihar, has trashed this charge, saying that the BJP was using a doctored video to defame the RJD ahead of the high-voltage Assembly polls.
Last night, the Bihar unit of the BJP shared a video on X that showed Tejashwi Yadav speaking from an RJD stage. Mr Yadav, the Leader of the Opposition, is on a 'Bihar Adhikar Yatra' to bolster support ahead of the state polls. In the video the BJP shared, a man can be heard abusing the Prime Minister and his mother as Mr Yadav addresses the crowd. NDTV cannot verify the authenticity of the video.
