He was released after the bail was given by his mother Reena Paswan."Chief minister Nitish Kumar is afraid of me. That is why he is using such force on me and on those who believe in democracy. He rules like a dictator and he uses power on the people who have challenged his dictatorship," Chirag Paswan said."On the direction of Nitish Kumar, Bihar police has changed the narratives of the lathi charge. They have beaten us in such a way that many of our supporters sustained serious injuries. A number of our supporters have sustained head injuries. One supporter sustained fractures in the rib cage, a woman supporter sustained skull injuries too," he said."We were dealt with as we are terrorists. Do we look like terrorist? The Chief minister should clarify," Paswan asked.The protest march was launched against Gaighat shelter home sexual assault case, rising crimes, high unemployment rate and deteriorating law and order situation in the state.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
