During a protest that was undertaken by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in Patna against the corrupt practices of the incumbent Bihar government led by Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, Patna police lathi charged at the protesters. It was alleged by the BJP supporters that malpractices were being undertaken in the alleged recruitment of teachers. In order to highlight the fraudulent activities, BJP undertook the protest.

Another Netizen, Ajay Singh said that he pitied the people of Bihar who choose Nitish Kumar and Tejaswi Yadav.
I pity the people of Bihar who chose Nitish Kumar & RJD, Nitish Kumar brings Tejashwi Yadav with him, and Tejashwi Yadav brings old “Gunda Raj” with him! Shameful

Aaryavart said that Nitish Kumar’s rule is worse than that of the British rule and added that they are more cruel than the English rulers.
नीतीश कुमार और तेजस्वी यादव के आदेश पर बहुत बर्बरता पूर्वक लाठी चार्ज कराया गया है, कई विधायक और बुजुर्ग सांसदों को भी बुरी तरीके से लाठियों से मारा है,
इस बर्बरता पूर्वक कार्यवाही के कारण विजय कुमार जी की मौत हुई 😭
ॐ शांति
अंग्रेजो से भी अधिक क्रूरता किया है नीतीश कुमार ने— Aaryawarat (@Aaryawarat) July 13, 2023

भाजपा कार्यकर्ता की @NitishKumar सरकार ने हत्या की है । यह लोकतंत्र पर चंगेंजी हमला है । यह सरकार असहनीय है । @TawdeVinod @SMCHOUOfficial @bhikhubhaidbjp @BJP4Bihar

One more netizen came down heavily on the Bihar government and stated, “ It’s a “Sarkari Jungle Raaz” in Bihar…. It’s not BJP worker Vijay Singh but Nitish Kumar’s governance model which is laying on the death bed.. Ironically these people claim to be the protectors of democracy. Shameful!!
