Bihar Politics News: The Monsoon Session of the Bihar Assembly this time has been drenched not by rain, but by a thunderstorm of statements.
On Wednesday, as soon as the proceedings of the house began, a political storm erupted. A question from Tejashwi Yadav creased the brows of the ruling alliance, and what followed turned the entire political atmosphere of Bihar fiery. Tejashwi launched a direct attack on the government over the SIR (Special Investigation Report) issue. His barrage of accusations sharply raised the temperature of the assembly. Speaker Nand Kishore Yadav, having allocated time to all parties to speak, saw the opposition come fully prepared into the battlefield. But things escalated when RJD legislator Bhai Virendra made a provocative remark that poured fuel on the political fire.
“This House Doesn’t Belong to Anyone’s Father!”
The moment Bhai Virendra uttered this line, the ruling party erupted in protest. Its legislators began shouting slogans, launching counterattacks filled with sarcasm, claps, and confrontation. The opposition too stood its ground. The entire assembly resembled a battlefield where no rules prevailed-only volleys of accusations and counter-accusations. The uproar grew so intense that the Speaker had to adjourn the session. However, he made it clear: Bhai Virendra should apologize. But in politics, is an apology ever that simple?
When Nitish Kumar Rose to Speak
Amidst this turbulence, the most startling moment came when Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar stood up. He didn’t wait for any permission from the Speaker. To respond to Tejashwi’s allegations, he began recounting the story of the past 20 years. Nitish said,
“Does anyone remember Bihar before 2005? People wouldn’t step out after sunset. Crime, kidnappings, and lawlessness reigned. We built Bihar brick by brick, and you… you were just a child back then!”
Pointing at Tejashwi, he continued, “What would you know about the condition of Bihar during your parents’ government? Whatever governance exists today did not emerge in a day.”
Tejashwi vs Nitish: An Old Feud in a New Avatar
While Tejashwi tried to corner the government on serious issues like the SIR, Nitish responded by invoking Bihar’s political history. This is the same ongoing duel that has become the axis of Bihar politics – on one side is Tejashwi, the poster boy of future politics, and on the other is seasoned Nitish Kumar, armed with two decades of governance experience. But the question remains: Whose voice will the people heed – Nitish’s experience or Tejashwi’s energy?
Verdict Will Come from the People’s Court
Concluding his remarks, the Chief Minister stated clearly,
“Now the people will decide who has done what-who built Bihar and who only made speeches. The elections are near, and that will be the real test.”
This entire episode has made one thing clear: Bihar politics has moved beyond debate into direct confrontation. The swords of rhetoric are sharpened, and both camps are visibly energized for the electoral battle ahead.
The Coming Days Will Be Even More Explosive
Although the assembly proceedings were adjourned, the issue remains far from over. Tejashwi will speak again. Nitish will respond again. The people are watching, and the coming election will determine which way Bihar’s political winds will turn. But one thing is certain-the Bihar Assembly session is no longer a mundane paperwork affair; it has become a live political arena. And the spectators are the 130 million people of Bihar, who will ultimately decide who the real champion is.
