New Delhi: Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on Friday lashed out at the media over what he called “wrong and inappropriate” questions on the murder of an IndiGo airline executive close to his home. “If you have any clues, please share with the police,” the Bihar Chief Minister sneered, challenging reporters to help solve the crime.
“Your questions are completely wrong, entirely inappropriate,” said Nitish Kumar to reporters when asked him about IndiGo manager Rupesh Kumar Singh’s killing on Tuesday.
I spoke with DGP, a special team has been formed. Don’t demoralise Police, if someone doesn’t carry out their duty, action is taken. What used to happen before 2005? There was a lot of crime. Is it the same today?, said Bihar CM on murder of an IndiGo manager in Patna & crime in state.
“You are so mahaan (great). Who are you supporting? I am asking you directly. There was so much crime under the husband-wife duo. Why don’t you highlight that?
