The banners pasted on the stage only had a picture of the Deputy Chief Minister and the state Health Minister.
Both Tarkishore Prasad and Mangal Pandey are BJP leaders. The JD(U) is running the government in the state in alliance with the BJP.
The JD(U) leaders were shocked to see the Chief Minister’s picture missing from the banners pasted on the stage, leaving the BJP leaders in an uncomfortable position.
JD(U) MLA from Bari constituency, Vijay Singh, and Municipal Corporation Deputy Mayor, Suraj Prakash Rai, including several JD(U) leaders were visibly upset. The JD(U) leaders said they were insulted by the event organisers who ignored them.
