The homemaker turned politician replied, “Nitish Kumar seems to be provoked by black clothes just like a bull begins to charge upon seeing red colour. What wrong did we do inside the House? The proceedings have been recorded. School children were sitting in the viewers’ gallery. I dare the government to prove any misconduct on our part.” The ex-CM had reached the House on the last day of the monsoon session, determined to put the government on the mat.Earlier, she had staged a demonstration, joined by other opposition MLCs, at the gate of the Vidhan Parishad.Slogans were raised against the special intensive revision and the conduct of NDA leaders in the assembly on the previous day.The RJD leader got irked when journalists asked him about the claim of Deputy Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary, who had on Thursday put the blame of pandemonium inside the assembly squarely on opposition MLAs led by Tejashwi Yadav.She shot back, “Do not ask me about Samrat Choudhary. I have known him since he was a child. He has been a goon and used to harass girls in Boring Road locality of the city. Let us not speak much about those in the JD(U)-BJP combine. They are like vermin (naali ke keede).”Notably, Choudhary, a former state president of the BJP, had begun his political career in the 1990s as a minister in Rabri Devi’s cabinet.When Vijay Kumar Sinha, another Deputy CM and a veteran BJP leader, was asked about Rabri Devi’s tirade, he responded sarcastically, “The RJD is equated with jungle raj and, therefore, they have good knowledge of who is a goon and who is not.””We, in the BJP, believe in taking all people along in the greater interests of the society and reform those who may have been led astray in the past. As for the type of language used by her, one does not expect anything from the RJD people”, added Sinha.
