On one hand, the opposition party is attacking Nitish Kumar for his attempt to remove the hijab of a female doctor during the distribution of appointment letters in Patna, while on the other hand, BJP has supported the Chief Minister.
Senior BJP leader Haribhushan Thakur Bachaul said on Thursday (December 18, 2025) that hijab should be banned across India. Hijab should be banned in public places and government jobs also. BJP leader was talking to ABP News.
‘Nitish Kumar did the right thing by removing hijab’
Bachaul said that terrorism flourishes under the cover of hijab. After committing a terrorist incident, the terrorists run away wearing hijab. Anyone wearing hijab should go to Pakistan. He said that CM Nitish Kumar will not apologize. They are absolutely healthy. He corrected a female doctor by pulling her hijab at the appointment letter distribution ceremony.
The BJP leader also said that the female doctor who had come wearing hijab to collect the appointment letter should leave Bihar. She had gone to collect the appointment letter, hiding her face.
RJD called Bachaul a rioter
On the other hand, after the statement of BJP leader, politics has intensified. RJD leader Mukesh Kumar Roshan called Bachaul a rioter. Said that they want to create a fight between Hindus and Muslims. He demanded the immediate arrest of Bachaul.
Mukesh Roshan also said that Nitish Kumar’s mental health bulletin should be released. Resign from the post of CM. Are mentally ill. The female doctor whose hijab was pulled has left Bihar. Will not work here. It is shameful for Bihar that Bengal has gone.
Let us tell you that the opposition people are doing politics over the way Nitish Kumar removed the hijab, but the NDA ally BJP is not considering it wrong. Union Minister Giriraj Singh has also said that Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has not done anything wrong. This is not an Islamic country. The rule of law will prevail in India. Nitish Kumar did the right thing.
