बेगूसराय में दलित महिला के साथ जो घटना घटित हुई है, वह अत्यंत ही दुर्भाग्यपूर्ण है और उससे भी अधिक दुर्भाग्यपूर्ण नीतीश सरकार द्वारा कार्रवाई नहीं किया जाना है।
मैं सरकार से मांग करता हूं कि घटना में संलिप्त दोषियों पर एफ आई आर दर्ज कर कठोरतम कार्रवाई की जाए।@BJP4Bihar pic.twitter.com/nL62O0HXTd

Meanwhile, interacting with the media, Bihar Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) president Samrat Chaudhary while terming the incident extremely unfortunate, said that ” a Dalit daughter was stripped and beaten mercilessly in Bihar, it’s an extremely unfortunate incident, the Bihar government was making a hue and cry over incidents of other states till yesterday but look what is happening with the daughter of Bihar while the Nitish-Tejaswi government is sleeping, strict action should be taken against the accused.
It is to be noted that the law and order situation of the central Indian state is under scanner lately, where the opposition BJP has been continuously targeting the incumbent chief minister for ignoring significant issues of state affairs to pursue his ambition for a bigger National level role in the upcoming general election scheduled to be held in 2024.
