There are a lot of arrows of statements flying in the politics of Bihar these days. The latest case is to ‘Bihar AI Summit’, where during the inaugural session, Chief Minister Samrat Chaudhary said something which has created a new political controversy in the state. Taking political aim from the platform of technology, he said that currently more than 4 thousand CCTV cameras are installed in Patna. If using technology AI (Artificial Intelligence) is asked to search for people wearing ‘Hara Gamchha’, then the AI ​​system will immediately find and catch all the people wearing Hara Gamchha.

However, after the uproar over this statement, Chief Minister Samrat Chaudhary immediately presented his clarification. He said that his reference was not at all towards any particular person or persons and he had said this completely in a joking tone. But it is being clearly said in the political circles that indirectly his direct target was towards the main opposition party Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), because RJD leaders and workers often use the green colored towel as their identity.

Criminal has no caste, CM counters on encounter allegations

After taking a dig at the opposition, the Chief Minister also took a very tough stance on law and order in Bihar and the ongoing action against criminals. He further said, “For me, no criminal has any caste. I want to ask, will the police now shoot any criminal after asking his caste?”

Actually, this entire controversy is about ‘Operation Langra’ being run by the police to curb the increasing crime in Bihar. Under this operation, the police is encountering criminals, on which RJD is continuously raising questions. RJD has a serious allegation that the government is conducting encounters on the basis of caste and the Yadav community is being deliberately targeted. This statement of the Chief Minister is being seen as a befitting reply to this allegation.

RJD’s strong attack on CM’s green gamcha statement

As soon as this statement of Chief Minister Samrat Chaudhary came to light, RJD has opened its front. RJD’s chief spokesperson Ejaz Ahmed gave a very sharp reaction to this and said that the use of such light language does not suit a person holding a responsible post like the Chief Minister.

While reminding the Chief Minister about his old times, the spokesperson said that Samrat Choudhary himself had once graduated from Rashtriya Janata Dal’s school, hence he should take care of decorum. Explaining the importance of green color, he said that green color is the biggest basis for prosperity and making our Ganga-Jamuni culture stronger, there should not be this kind of politics on it.

Government’s big plan regarding Bihar AI Summit-2026
