TIL Desk/National/Patna/ The opposition RJD in Bihar has alleged that the person driving the SUV which mowed down nine children in Muzaffarpur district two days ago was “a drunk BJP leader” whom the Nitish Kumar government was trying to shield.
Rubbishing the charge, deputy chief minister Sushil Kumar Modi asserted that the police has been directed to take “sternest possible action” against the accused, “irrespective of political affiliations”.
“Prohibition in Bihar is a farce and the ghastly incident of Muzaffarpur, where a drunk BJP leader crushed nine children to death and left more than 20 others injured, proves our point,” leader of the opposition in the state assembly Tejashwi Yadav told reporters.
He later led a march to Raj Bhawan and submitted a memorandum to Governor Satya Pal Malik. “The identity of the accused is now known as the police has registered an FIR against a named person. Yet, no arrest has been made. We suspect he has been asked by his political bosses to hide for some time so that no trace of alcohol is found in his blood during investigation,” Yadav said.
