“Arrest me now”: Tejashwi Yadav challenges Nitish Kumar over new order

New Delhi: Soon after Nitish Kumar ordered action against “offensive” posts against his government in Bihar. Tejashwi Yadav dared Nitish govt to arrest him.

Tejashwi Tweeted, “Nitish Kumar, the creator of 60 scams, is the Bhishma Pitamah of corruption, the patron of misdemeanor criminals, the weak head of the immoral and illegal government. Bihar Police sells liquor. Rescues criminals and implicates the innocent.”

I challenge CM- Now arrest me under this order. Down pointing backhand index.

60 घोटालों के सृजनकर्ता नीतीश कुमार भ्रष्टाचार के भीष्म पितामह, दुर्दांत अपराधियों के संरक्षकर्ता, अनैतिक और अवैध सरकार के कमजोर मुखिया है। बिहार पुलिस शराब बेचती है। अपराधियों को बचाती है निर्दोषों को फँसाती है।

CM को चुनौती देता हूँ- अब करो इस आदेश के तहत मुझे गिरफ़्तार।? https://t.co/wDJfoMqgjT
