JP Nadda- The lathi charge on BJP workers in Patna is the result of the failure and indignation of the state government. The Grand Alliance government is attacking democracy to save the citadel of corruption. To save the person who has been chargesheeted, the Chief Minister of Bihar has even forgotten his morality.

Ravi Shankar Prasad- BJP worker Vijay Kumar Singh died after being beaten with sticks by Nitish Kumar’s police in Patna today during the assembly march being conducted by BJP in a democratic way. I am shocked to hear this news. Will there be deaths in Bihar instead of raising the voice of the people in a peaceful manner? Nitish Babu, what have you become in the new company. The death of BJP worker Vijay Kumar Singh ji will not go in vain, this alliance will prove to be the last nail in the coffin of the government.

Chirag Paswan- In the arrogance of power, the Chief Minister’s police took the life of an unarmed BJP worker fighting for the rights and rights of Biharis. If Bihar is not an undeclared emergency then what is it? Expressing condolences on the sad death of Vijay Singh, he said that may God give patience and strength to the bereaved family members to bear the loss.

Former Chief Minister of Jharkhand Raghubar Das- Bihar’s incompetent Mahathagbandhan government has committed the heinous sin of killing a BJP worker. His only fault was that he had joined the protest against the misrule of the Bihar government. Like the British rule, the death of a BJP leader in brutal lathicharge by Nitish government has become a black chapter of democracy.
