Bihar Election News | BJP’s Burqa Verification Remark Sparks Row, Nitish’s Unusual Gesture On Camera
A major political row has erupted in Bihar after state BJP president Dilip Jaiswal urged the Election Commission to ensure that women wearing burqas are properly verified against their voter ID photos at polling booths. Jaiswal said this step was needed to prevent impersonation and ensure only genuine voters cast their ballots.
Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has once again drawn attention for his unusual public gestures. During a virtual event where Prime Minister Narendra Modi awarded ITI toppers under the Kaushal Deekshant Samaroh 2025, Kumar was seen sitting with folded hands for nearly a minute — a moment that quickly went viral. The Opposition has renewed its criticism, raising questions about the Chief Minister’s health and stability ahead of the Bihar elections.
NDTV’s Shubh Bhardwaj brings you the details.
