Bihar: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday lashed out at the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) supremo Lalu Yadav over his remarks on Maha Kumbh and said that those who believe in “jungle raj hate our heritage and faith”.
While addressing a rally in Bihar’s Bhagalpur, he highlighted the significance of the ‘Mahakumbh of Unity’, currently underway in Prayagraj. He emphasised that this celebration represents the largest gathering of India’s faith, unity, and harmony, with more attendees than Europe’s entire population taking a holy dip.
“More people than the entire population of Europe have taken a holy dip in this Mahakumbh. However, those from the ‘jungle raj’ are criticising this sacred event. Those who are against the Ram temple are seizing every chance to slander the Mahakumbh. I am confident that the people of Bihar will never forgive those who speak ill of this sacred occasion,” said PM Modi.
PM Modi said that the ‘Mahakumbh of Unity’ is currently underway in Prayagraj. It represents the largest celebration of India’s faith, unity, and harmony.
The Prime Minister also emphasised the BJP-led NDA government’s commitment to preserving India’s glorious heritage and building a glorious future.
“The BJP-led NDA government is working together to preserve India’s glorious heritage and build a glorious future. But these people of jungle raj hate our heritage, our faith,” added the Prime Minister.
This comes after Lalu Yadav, on February 16, 2025, had said, “Kumbh ka kahan koi matlab hai. Faaltu hai kumbh (Kumbh has no meaning. Kumbh is useless),” while answering his suggestion regarding crowd management for the Mahakumbh after Railway’s mismanagement led to the stampede at the New Delhi railway station that claimed the lives of at least 18 people.
