Overview

• The short clip, shared from a Darbhanga stop of the opposition ‘Voter Adhikar Yatra,’ appears to show abusive language aimed at Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his late mother from a Congress-RJD stage.
• BJP leaders called the incident extremely shameful and pressed Rahul Gandhi to apologize, with Bihar’s deputy chief minister warning of action.
• Congress condemned the comments, said Rahul Gandhi was not scheduled to speak at that stop, and pledged to identify the individual and take action.
• Multiple reports note that national leaders were not on the dais when the remarks were made, while local accounts identify Mohammad Naushad, a Congress ticket aspirant, as having set up or been present on the stage.
• The episode unfolded near NH-27 in Bithauli village under Simri police station limits in Darbhanga around late morning, and party inquiries into the incident are underway.
