Neeraj Kumar, the spokesman for the JD-U, responded forcefully on Wednesday to the recent poster war in Bihar, which has been more intense in the run-up to the polls.

“There is no official information about who put up the poster outside Rabri Devi’s residence,” said Neeraj Kumar. In actuality, however, the younger generation needs to see this for themselves. There have been serious social and political problems in Bihar as a result of the Lalu ideology. Bihar’s reputation has been tarnished.

The Bihar poster battle has started as elections draw near. ‘Bhoolega Nahi Bihar,’ or ‘Bihar will not forget,’ is the latest poster that JD(U) employees have published. The poster conveys the phrase “Bhoolega Nahi Bihar” while highlighting the “atrocities of the jungle raj.”

The dispute started when Chief Minister Nitish Kumar was the focus of a controversial billboard by the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) criticizing his views on the National Register of Citizens (NRC) and the Waqf (Amendment) Bill.

The billboard showed CM Nitish welcoming a Muslim cleric outside the home of former chief minister and RJD leader Rabri Devi at 10 Circular Road, Patna.

“Tum To Dhokhebaaz Ho, Wada Karke Bhul Jate Ho,” the poster’s message said, accusing Nitish of being a “cheater” who breaks his word.

The harsh statement, “I will take your vote but not stand with you on NRC and Waqf Bill with you,” was also included in the poster, which was put up by RJD leader Sanju Kohli.

The poster battle follows rising anger among Muslim organizations, who recently skipped CM Nitish’s Iftar celebration to express their displeasure with his policies, especially those related to the NRC and the Waqf Bill.

By using this controversial image, the RJD seems to be trying to strengthen its base of traditional Muslim-Yadav (MY) voters and establish itself as the “true voice” of Bihar’s minority.
