There was an uproar against the local JDU MLA in front of CM Nitish Kumar on the Vaishali tour. People raised slogans of ‘Go Back’. During this time the CM inaugurated and laid the foundation stone of 331 development projects worth 744 crore.
Patna: Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar’s Vaishali visit became memorable with uproar. On Sunday, CM Nitish Kumar organized a program for the inauguration of public dialogue and development schemes in Garaul and Desri blocks. But as soon as the Chief Minister came out of his venue, the local people expressed their anger and raised slogans of ‘Go Back’ against JDU MLA Siddharth Patel.
The reason for resentment in public
According to local sources, the dissatisfaction of the public was mainly about the performance and presence of the local MLA. The villagers alleged that in the last few years, MLAs do not give enough time in their area and do not monitor the schemes. This time he was directly targeted due to being with the MLA in the Chief Minister’s program.
Security forces
During the uproar, security forces were deployed, who immediately tried to bring the situation under control. The mob not only expressed displeasure against the MLA, but also raised loud slogans while moving towards the CM’s car. Officials said that security personnel had to take fast action to avoid any untoward incident.
CM’s visit and development plans
During this, the Chief Minister laid the foundation stone and inaugurated several schemes including Degree College in Harser village of Garaul block. Subsequently, the beneficiary attended the beneficiary dialogue program at SPS College in Desari Block. On this occasion, CM inaugurated and laid the foundation stone of 331 development projects at a cost of Rs 744 crore 85 lakh.
The Chief Minister’s visit and inauguration of schemes was an attempt to show the development pace of the state government, but the public’s response against the local MLA gave an unusual turn. Experts believe that such uproar before the upcoming assembly elections can have a serious impact on the upcoming electoral strategy for both JDU and NDA.
