Rohini Acharya Rebukes BJP Over Purported 'Dancer' Jibe at Khesari Lal Yadav

The dispute follows a circulating, unverified clip attributed to Bihar’s deputy chief minister, signaling sharpened rhetoric before voting.

Overview

  • RJD leader Rohini Acharya criticized the BJP after questions over a clip attributing a 'dancer' remark to Samrat Chaudhary, defending artists and objecting to the 'nachaniya' label.
  • She named BJP-aligned celebrities including Hema Malini, Kangana Ranaut, Manoj Tiwari, Ravi Kishan, Pawan Singh and Dinesh Yadav (Nirahua), alleging the party relies on star power to draw crowds.
  • The video cited by reporters is described in coverage as a purported social media clip claiming Chaudhary said the opposition had fielded a 'nachne wala', with no independent verification noted.
  • On Friday, RJD candidate Khesari Lal Yadav urged restraint in campaign language, calling it wrong to insult people just to win elections and saying leaders should set an example for younger generations.
  • Khesari Lal Yadav is contesting the Chapra seat for the RJD, with Bihar voting on November 6 and 11 and counting on November 14, as the BJP also presses complaints over Rahul Gandhi’s separate 'dance' remark about the prime minister.
