Patna, September 21, 2026 (Yes Punjab News)
Political tensions have intensified in Bihar following the alleged harassment of two minor students in Jamui, after a video of the incident surfaced on social media, prompting police action and criticism from opposition leaders.
RJD National Working President Tejashwi Yadav has targeted the Bihar government over the incident, alleging that it reflected a deterioration in law and order and raised concerns over the safety of women and students.
Sharing the video on X, Tejashwi alleged that “anarchy” had emerged in Bihar and claimed that women and female students were no longer safe. He accused criminals of committing offences openly and blamed the NDA government for failing to ensure the safety of women, students, poor people and Dalits.
Targeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Tejashwi referred to election promises concerning financial assistance to women and alleged that the Prime Minister had remained silent over such incidents.
He also criticised Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary, alleging that the state government had spent heavily from the exchequer during the Assembly elections while failing to address law-and-order concerns.
In a broader political attack, Tejashwi alleged that senior BJP leaders had handed over Bihar’s administration to inexperienced leaders following the NDA’s electoral victory. He held Prime Minister Modi politically responsible and criticised the BJP and its allies over the Jamui incident.
According to the available details, the incident took place on September 19 when a minor boy and girl returning from coaching were allegedly stopped by a group of youths. The incident was recorded and subsequently circulated on social media.
Jamui Police contacted the two minors, recorded their statements and registered an FIR. Three people have been arrested so far, while the investigation into the roles of other suspects is continuing.
The Bihar State Women’s Commission has also taken cognisance of the matter, seeking details and calling for strict action against those found responsible.
Authorities have maintained confidentiality regarding the identities of the minor victims. Police said the investigation remains underway and further legal action will be taken as the roles of the remaining suspects are established.
