RJD march against Bihar government’s ‘dictatorship’
Patna: The Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) today staged a march towards Lok Bhavan in Patna to protest against police action against students during demonstrations over the NEET paper leak and demands for accountability.
According to Kashmir Media Servic, RJD leader and Bihar Opposition Leader Tejashwi Yadav was briefly detained by police while leading the march. He was later released near the RJD office.
RJD chief Lalu Prasad accused the Bihar government of “dictatorship”, alleging that students were suffering from paper leaks, unemployment, a deteriorating education system and biased recruitment processes.
The party has also demanded accountability over an incident in Siwan in which a police constable fired an AK-47 during student protests.
