Political heat in Bihar is rising as elections approach. Amid the verbal tussle between political parties, a row has erupted over posters of RJD chief Lalu Yadav displayed across Patna’s intersections. The posters, marking 10th March 1990 as a black day, have attacked Lalu Yadav, as it was on this date that he first became the Chief Minister of Bihar.
It is still unclear who put up these posters in Patna. The posters show Lalu Yadav drumming and chewing a twig, along with the message that on this day, Lalu swore to drum Bihar and eat fodder. Every poster emphasizes that Bihar will not forget. The posters have a black background, and different messages are written on them.
One of the posters reads, “Bihar will not forget, 10th March 1990, that black day when Lalu even swore to graze the cow’s fodder. Bihar got the rule of oil pouring and stick-waving.” However, it is not clear which organization put up these posters. No political party or organization name is mentioned on the posters.
Another poster shows Lalu Yadav in a Holi celebration, playing the drum, with the message “Bihar will not forget.”
The posters have also sparked political controversy. BJP spokesperson Arvind Singh congratulated those who put up the posters, stating that they have done the job of awakening the youth of Bihar and exposing Lalu Yadav’s dark history. On the other hand, JD(U)’s Arvind Nishad stated that the posters were rightly placed, and they will make people more vigilant in the upcoming elections.
It is important to note that on 10th March 1990, Lalu Yadav became the Chief Minister for the first time, and this date is referenced in the posters to target him.
