TIL Desk/National/PATNA/ Bihar Excise and Prohibition minister Abdul Jalil Mastan has kicked up a controversy by asking a crowd gathered at a programme to protest the Centre’s demonetisation move and to beat the photograph of Prime Minister Narendra Modi with shoes.
A fuming BJP said it would raise the issue in the state assembly as well as the council on Wednesday, demanding chief minister Nitish Kumar to sack the minister.
The video is of a gathering of February 22 in Amour assembly constituency of Mastan in Purnia district, which was called to register protest against the demonetisation move. In the video, Mastan was heard telling the crowd that it was the PM who had said that if he failed to end people’s woes within 50 days of demonetisation, he was prepared to face any punishment.
The video shows the MLA telling the people to beat the PM’s photograph with shoes. A few supporters then beat the photograph of the PM kept on a chair on the stage with shoes while the minister was present on the dais.
