Tejashwi Yadav Slams PM Modi's 'Katta' Remark Amid Bihar Campaign

RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi for using the term 'katta,' an unlicensed gun, at a Bihar rally. Yadav claims Modi focuses on development in Gujarat but resorts to controversial remarks in Bihar, reflecting the RJD's strained political dynamics.

In a fiery response, RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav has condemned Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his use of the term 'katta,' referring to an unlicensed gun, at a rally in Bihar. Yadav expressed dismay, noting, "I've never heard any Prime Minister use such language."

Modi's comments, made during a Sunday campaign in Bihar, alleged Congress had only accepted Yadav's candidature for the INDIA bloc's chief ministerial position under duress, likening the pressure to having a 'katta' pointed at them. Tejashwi Yadav countered, highlighting the PM's differing rhetoric between Gujarat and Bihar.

Modi's visit to the state included speeches in Bhojpur and Nawada districts, where he underscored RJD's history of alleged strong-arm tactics. Yadav claims these remarks illustrate the PM's divisive approach, neglected when discussing Gujarat's tech advancements.
