A political controversy has erupted in Bihar over the participation of RJD leaders in Muharram processions. RJD leader Rabri Devi was seen bowing before a Muharram Tazia at her residence. The NDA has criticised this, recalling RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav's earlier controversial remarks about the Kumbh Mela. Yadav had called the Kumbh 'faltu' (meaningless) when asked about crowd management at religious gatherings. The debate has intensified discussions on secularism, vote bank politics, and the development of minority communities in Bihar. Both sides have accused each other of using religious symbols for political gains.
