Political Firestorm: Tejashwi Yadav Condemns PM Modi's 'Katta' Remark

RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi for using the term 'katta' at a rally in Bihar. Yadav expressed disappointment over the PM's choice of words, contrasting Modi's discussions about development in Gujarat with his inflammatory remarks during Bihar's campaign. The comments spotlight the political tension leading up to Bihar's assembly polls.

In a scathing rebuke, RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi's controversial 'katta' remark made at a political rally in Bihar. Yadav expressed that he had never heard a Prime Minister use such language.

Modi suggested that the Congress had reluctantly agreed to Tejashwi Yadav as the chief ministerial candidate of the INDIA bloc, supposedly under pressure likened to a 'katta', a colloquial term for a country-made gun. Yadav argued this reflects the PM's prejudiced thinking.

Highlighting a stark contrast, Yadav pointed out Modi's focus on industrial developments when in Gujarat, while resorting to divisive tactics in Bihar. The remarks came against the backdrop of the upcoming Bihar assembly polls, marking an intense political battle.
