Bihar News: Union Minister and Lok Janshakti Party (LJP) leader Chirag Paswan on Saturday criticized the Bihar police and administration as poor. He said that it is painful for him to support a government where crimes are being unbridled.

Chirag Paswan's statement came after the incident of the rape of a woman in Gaya. Talking to reporters, he said, "Criminal incidents are taking place in Bihar one after the other, and the administration is proving to be a complete failure." He warned that if the situation remains the same, then a terrible situation will arise in the state.

Even after the opposition had stated the conspiracy to defame the government by the opposition, Chirag clarified that the responsibility still lies with the administration. This is not the first time Chirag Paswan has criticized the government on increasing crimes in Bihar. In the past, he has questioned the functioning of police and administration many times.

There has been a rapid increase in crimes in Bihar in recent times. Reports of murder, robbery, and rape are coming from several districts, including Patna. In the same month, incidents such as the killing of three businessmen in Patna and the shooting of gangster Chandan Mishra in hospital have raised serious questions on the law and order of the state. Now the gang rape in Gaya has made the situation even more explosive.

Political analysts consider these statements of Chirag Paswan as a sign of increasing tension in Bihar's coalition government. It is also worth noting that this criticism has come at a time when an electoral atmosphere has started to be created in the state. Opposition parties were already accusing the Bihar government of failing law and order; now such a statement from the coalition partner can give a new direction to political equations.

These incidents have also created a sense of insecurity among the common citizens of Bihar. People are questioning whether the state government is really serious about improving law and order. It is clear from Chirag Paswan's statements that dissatisfaction is also increasing within the coalition government, and this situation can give a new turn to the politics of Bihar in the coming days.
