A massive controversy erupted during Rahul Gandhi-led ‘Vote Adhikar Yatra’ in Bihar’s Darbhanga after abusive slogans were allegedly raised against Prime Minister Narendra Modi from a stage featuring Congress leaders.

The incident occurred near NH-27 in Bithauli under Simri police station limits, where one of several stages for the yatra had been erected.

The platform was reportedly set up by Mohammad Naushad, a local Congress leader and ticket aspirant for the upcoming Bihar Assembly elections. Neither Rahul Gandhi nor Priyanka Gandhi was present when the abusive slogans were raised.

Video clips from the event show party workers using offensive language against the Prime Minister.

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, along with RJD’s Tejashwi Yadav and other like-minded leaders, launched ‘Vote Adhikar Yatra’ in poll-bound Bihar against the Election Commission’s Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of electoral rolls.

BJP Warns Of Action

The incident triggered sharp political reactions, with Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Vijay Sinha lashing out at the Congress. “The Congress will be dealt with in the same language they choose to understand," Sinha warned.

The Congress, meanwhile, has distanced itself from the episode.

Senior leader Rashid Alvi said the party does not endorse such remarks. “This act is definitely condemnable," he said, adding that an inquiry is underway to verify the individual’s political links.

The controversy threatens to overshadow Rahul Gandhi’s Vote Adhikar Yatra, which aims to mobilise support ahead of the upcoming elections.
