|November 10, 2024
Reacting to RJD MP Sudhakar Singh's remark that this time BJP supporters would be beaten with batons at "300 polling booths", Bihar Minister Santosh Singh on Saturday said that the party would not tolerate such threats and would "respond accordingly".

Addressing media persons in Kaimur, the Minister said: "The BJP is not a weak force and has ample resources to counter any actions against its supporters. We do not have a scarcity of batons. If they attack with batons, we will chop off their fingers."
He underscored the BJP's resolve to prevent the "return of Jungle Raj" in Bihar.
