Bharatiya Janata Party MP Navneet Rana strongly criticized Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar for his controversial remarks on women and population control, demanding his immediate resignation. Rana emphasized the need for the CM to focus on providing justice to women in Bihar, urging him to keep inappropriate thoughts confined to his personal space.
The chaotic scenes in the Bihar Assembly during the Winter Session ensued as opposition members raised slogans against CM Nitish Kumar for his objectionable comments on birth control. Despite the BJP’s scathing attacks, Kumar apologized for his remarks, stating, “I apologize, and I take back my words.”
Bharatiya Janata Party MP Sudhanshu Trivedi condemned Kumar’s statement, calling it “shameful, condemnable, and painful.” Trivedi highlighted the low mentality displayed by leaders in the India bloc regarding women.
Bihar Deputy CM Tejashwi Yadav defended Nitish Kumar, asserting that the CM’s remarks were related to sex education, not population control. Yadav urged against misinterpreting the statement, emphasizing the practical aspect of addressing population growth through education.
