PM slams Rahul, Tejashwi for ‘insulting’ Chhath Puja, says such people deserve punishment
The Statesman
|October 31, 2025
A day after Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's "dance for vote" remark, Prime Minister Narendra Modi lashed out at the RJD and Congress leaders, accusing them of belittling a major religious observance, adding that they have been "shamelessly saying that the Chhath Puja is just drama and theatrics. Such people should be punished.
Addressing an election rally in Muzaffarpur on Thursday, Modi said, "Women who observe long fasts, stand in the Ganges, and offer prayers to the Sun God-in the eyes of RJD and Congress, they are doing drama. Will the mothers and sisters of Bihar tolerate this insult to Chhathi Maiya? I know that no person in Bihar can ever forget this insult."
