RJD leader and former union minister Prem Chand Gupta on Thursday downplayed Bihar's Deputy Chief Minister Tejaswi Yadav's comparison of the Gaya road rage case with the terrorist attack the Pathankot air base, saying the grand alliance government under Nitish Kumar's leadership does not support crime.
"No one supports crime. Whatever happened in Gaya is unfortunate and saddening. The party his (Rocky) mother belongs to is JD (U); it has nothing to do with our party,' Gupta told ANI here.
"Yes, we are in alliance.Should we hang ourselves? Is that a solution? The police is taking action," he added.
Earlier on Wednesday, Tejaswi listed several cases, including the Pathankot terror attack, to deny the opposition's charge that there was 'jungle raj' in the state.
"Isn't raising of Pakistani flags in Kashmir valley an example of jungle raj? What about terrorists' attack on the IAF base at Pathankot? Isn't that jungle raj?" Tejaswi, the son of RJD president Lalu Prasad Yadav, said.
"In Madhya Pradesh, an officer was killed brutally by sand mafias. In Vyapam scam, witnesses were killed one by one ... but this is not called a 'jungle raj'," he said.
Opposition parties earlier trained guns at Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar for allowing the return of 'jungle raj' after JD (U) MLC Manorama Devi's son Rocky Yadav allegedly shot dead a 20-year-old youth for overtaking his vehicle last week.
