'You Only Became CM After Your Husband Was Suspended': CM Nitish, Rabri Trade Barbs In Bihar Assembly — WATCH

CM Nitish Kumar and Rabri Devi clashed in the Bihar Assembly over violence issues and political claims. The chief minister claimed that Rabri Devi only became a CM because her husband was suspended.

During the Bihar Assembly altercation erupted between Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and former CM and Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader Rabri Devi on Thursday during the question hour.

CM Nitish Kumar claimed that only Janata Dal (United) (JDU) has been working tirelessly to bring peace to the state. He blamed RJD for not taking any action against violence in the state, while in power adding that they also indulged in Hindu-Muslim struggles and never did anything to stop it. Following this chaos erupted in the assembly. The chief minister claimed that Rabri Devi only became the chief minister of the state because her husband was suspended.

Rabri Devi slammed CM Nitish Kumar for the poor handling of the violence in the state.

Later, while speaking to the media, the former CM Rabri Devi says, "Rapes, thefts, robberies are happening in the state but they (ruling side) don't let us raise these issues in Assembly. If we don't raise issues related to the public, then what should we do? But he (Nitish Kumar) kept saying "aapka pati" [your husband]...We cooperate with the govt, but it is running away from responding to our questions."

“You (media) should ask ED (Enforcement Directorate), Nitish Kumar and the PM what ED asked me."
