Tweeting on the incident wherein a gun-wielding man shot a student at Jamia, RJD attacked the BJP government stating that they "wanted worse."
Tweeting on the shocking incident wherein a gun-wielding man shot at a protesting student at Jamia, RJD openly attacked the BJP government at the Centre.
In a shocking incident on Thursday, a man wielding a pistol open fired near the Jamia Millia Islamia University in the national capital. He allegedly shot a protesting student.
"Crazy leaders were provoking firing, now a bullet has been fired! BJP did not want this! They wanted worse! And whatever it is will be worse than this situation! The BJP seems to have sent the Election Commission on a long leave!," read the tweet.
'EC sent on long leave by BJP'
The RJD stated that this has happened after "crazy leaders" provoked people to open fire at the protestors of the anti-CAA disposition. They also took a jibe at the Election Commission for being sent on a "long leave" by the BJP and pulling wool over their eyes over the recent happenings in the country.
RJD's comments were come in the backdrop of the recent statements made by Union Finance Minister (MoS) Anurag Thakur in a BJP rally in Delhi where he had openly asked people to "shoot the traitors" ('Desh ke gaddaron ko, goli maron salon ko') after which the Election Commission (EC) had ordered the BJP to remove him from star campaigners list, and has subsequently prohibited him from campaigning in the Delhi polls for 96 hours.
