“Who will kick who out of this country? Nobody has the courage, ”says Bihar CM.
Hours after Uttar Pradesh’s Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath told a public meeting in Bihar that through the Citizenship (Amendment) Act (CAA), those who tried to violate the country’s security would be expelled, the partner of the BJP alliance and the Chief Minister of Bihar. Nitish Kumar asked: “Who says all this nonsense? No one has the courage [to drive people out]”.
“Kaun kisko is desh se bahar karega … ye kisi ke paas dum nahi hai … sab Hindustan ke hain … kaun kisko bahar karega? [Who will drive out whom from this country…no one has the courage…everyone is from India…who will throw out whom?)”, asked Mr. Kumar, while addressing a public meeting on Wednesday at Muslim-dominated Kochadhaman in Kishanganj district of northeast Bihar.
“Who does all this malicious campaigning? Who utters all this faltu baat [nonsense]? ”Thundered Mr. Kumar, who faces a strong anti-incumbent mood among voters. “It is our religion to take everyone with us … this has been our culture … when everyone walks, Bihar will progress,” Kumar tweeted.
At another public meeting in Thakurganj district, the Chief Minister of Bihar also recalled what his government had done for the welfare and development of the minority community in the state.
“We have built an agriculture school here in the name of Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam… we have built residential schools for minority children… we have also decided to open a Veterinary and Home Sciences College and also make Anjuman Islmaia Hall in Patna a building of several floors, ”Mr. Kumar said.
Earlier in the day, Mr. Adityanath, while addressing a public meeting in Katihar in northeast Bihar, spoke about the CAA, saying: “With the CAA, Prime Minister ModiHee has found a solution to the problem of infiltration … guaranteed the safety of tortured minorities living in Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh. Those who try to violate the security of the country will be expelled… we will not tolerate anyone who threatens the security and sovereignty of the country ”.
The third phase of the survey for 78 seats in Bihar is scheduled for November 7, mainly in the Muslim-dominated Seemanchal (border) areas in northeast Bihar.
