BJP’s ‘demon’ remark on Lalu triggers political slugfest

In a heated political exchange, BJP state president Dilip Jaiswal on Monday sparked controversy by accusing RJD chief Lalu Prasad of fostering a culture that breeds "demons." Jaiswal's remark has intensified the ongoing rivalry between the two parties, with the BJP leader attributing the state's socio-political issues to what he described as Lalu's detrimental influence and legacy. The RJD swiftly condemned the statement, with party spokesperson Manoj Jha calling it a desperate attempt by the BJP to divert attention from their governance failures. Jha emphasized that such rhetoric only reveals the BJP's inability to engage in constructive dialogue and address pressing issues facing Bihar. The war of words has further polarized supporters, with both sides rallying their bases in response. As the political slugfest continues, analysts suggest that this exchange could impact upcoming electoral strategies, potentially reshaping alliances and voter perceptions. With both parties refusing to back down, the incident underscores the deep-rooted tensions in Bihar's political landscape, highlighting the challenges of navigating a path towards constructive political discourse.
