Giriraj Singh, who began his speech by exhorting the crowd to make themselves heard in Italy, said that Lalu Prasad had taken the beef issue from "Delhi-Dadri" when he ran out of issues.
Despite the Prime Minister’s calls to ignore such statements, Union minister Giriraj Singh has not let go of beef politics – he raised it again at Bihar Sharif on Sunday.
Singh was speaking ahead of PMNarendra Modi’s arrival at the venue. “I am someone who follows a Sanatan Dharma. If I have to leave my minister post, I will – but Nitish Kumar will have to answer – if he forms government, will Bihar’s Hindus have to eat cow meat?”
Cow slaughter is already banned in Bihar with a 1955 Act.
Singh attacked Lalu Prasad for saying that those who eat mutton also eat beef. The minister then came up with a scenario whereby someone offers beef to the destitute outside Patna’s Hanuman temple: “They will leave if you offer them beef….because they will not forget their culture.”
