Nalanda/ Bihar: RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav responding to the shooting incident in a school in Nalanda district of Bihar said that ‘the audacity of government criminals is so high’ in the state, Free Press Journal reported.
A 19-year-old former student of a government high school on Wednesday opened fire at the school's headmaster.
The man, identified as Jagan alias Udal Kumar, allegedly entered the headmaster, Santosh Kumar’s office with a gun in hand and injured him.
Footage showed the 55-year-old headmaster sitting on a chair, checking his phone when Jagan shot at him.
The headmaster jumps out of the chair as the accused reloaded the weapon, before firing another round at his leg.
Following the incident, Tejashwi Yadav criticised the state government for the poor law and order situation in Bihar.
In a post on X , Tejashwi Yadav said: "In Bihar, the audacity of government criminals is so high that yesterday, while both the Prime Minister and the Chief Minister were present in the CM's home district of Nalanda, government goons entered a school openly, shot the head teacher, and created a ruckus."
Alongside taking on PM Modi over the incident, he said that the Prime Minister will call it Rama Rajya seeing ‘the colour of the clothes and gamchha of the accused’, adding ‘Anyway, the elections are over now, so the Prime Minister will see the so-called Jungle Raj of 25 years ago in the upcoming election campaign. As long as all the CM NDA have the same attitude, government criminals will continue to sacrifice thousands of citizens under the protection of the government whenever and wherever they want.’
