Political Statements

The Bihar Congress announced district-level protests on October 27, 2026, accusing the BJP of misrepresenting remarks made by Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge about Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s late father. The dispute has triggered a fresh political confrontation between the two parties.

The campaign reflects how electoral-roll revision has become a political issue involving voter inclusion, election administration and institutional credibility. Claims about deleted names should be assessed using official records and individual cases rather than political statements alone.

JD(U) MLA Anant Singh triggered a political controversy after claiming he had got nine people murdered while supporting Nitish Kumar. He later clarified that nine of his associates had been killed during Lalu Prasad Yadav's tenure, prompting sharp reactions from the RJD and JD(U).
