Tejashwi Yadav Plays 'Waqf' Card In Bihar Election: Open Call Or Coded Warning?
The RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav declared that he would toss the waqf law into the dustbin in a region where Muslims make up more than 50% of the population. Later, Union Minister Kiren Rijiju led the attack, questioning if this was another attempt to mislead and provoke the Muslim community over a central law. Can any party really claim to annul legislation passed by the Parliament of India? Is this an effort to distract from criticism facing the Mahagathbandhan, particularly for not naming a Muslim as a prospective deputy Chief Minister?
The big questions on The Buck Stops Here: Will Bihar's political fate be decided by 'waqf ka ilaaj' threats? Are we seeing a repeat of the tried-and-tested model to instill fear and consolidate votes?
