Bihar CM's remark on molestation videos sparks fresh opposition outcry

The Bihar Chief Minister's recent remarks regarding molestation videos have ignited a fresh political storm in the state, with opposition parties seizing on the comments as evidence of governmental insensitivity.

The CM's statement that media outlets "could find only five videos" has drawn particular criticism from the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), which questioned the appropriateness of his response to the serious issue. The opposition party's response on social media platforms suggested that even a single such video should be a matter of grave concern for any responsible administration.

The controversy reflects the ongoing tension between the state government and opposition parties over handling of sensitive criminal matters. RJD representatives argued that the Chief Minister's framing of the issue trivializes the gravity of crimes against women and suggests a lack of urgency in addressing the problem.

This marks another instance of the Bihar CM facing backlash over public statements, with critics asserting that his remarks demonstrate insufficient seriousness toward crimes documented on video platforms. The incident has reignited debate about governance priorities and the administration's approach to women's safety concerns in the state.
