Nitish working to execute agenda of RSS in Bihar : Tejashwi

Patna, June 18 (UNI) RJD leader Tejashwi Prasad Yadav today alleged that Chief Minister Nitish Kumar was working hard to "execute the agenda of RSS in Bihar".
Yadav, also leader of the opposition in Bihar Assembly, posted the comment on his social media account X.
He also uploaded a video on X in which a Minister of Nitish's cabinet Ashok Chaudhary could be seen, saying his son-in-law Sion Kunal has been accommodated in the Bihar State Religious Board from RSS quota.
The RJD leader said that Chief Minister Kumar was in the control of BJP and RSS and he was not taking decisions on his own.
"Kumar failed to exert pressure on Narendra Modi government to place provision of 65 percent reservation in government services, in ninth schedule of the constitution," he stated. Provision of 65 percent reservation was made for Backwards and deprived in government services when the Grand Alliance government was in power in Bihar, he pointed out.
"Muslims are being tortured in Bihar as per agenda of RSS," Tejashwi alleged adding that rights of oppressed and backwards were being snatched by the Nitish government. Retired officials were appointed on contract basis and they were engaged in looting the government funds, he alleged.
