Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday accused the INDIA bloc of "enslavement" and performing "mujra" for Muslim vote bank. Addressing back-to-back rallies in Buxar, Karakat and Patliputra Lok Sabha constituencies in Bihar, the prime minister also charged the opposition coalition with indulging in "scaremongering".

"Bihar is the land which has given a new direction to the fight for social justice. I wish to declare on its soil that I will foil the plans of the INDIA bloc to rob SCs, STs and OBCs of their rights and divert these to Muslims. They may remain enslaved and perform 'mujra' to please their vote bank," the PM said.

RJD MP Manoj Jha reacted sharply to Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s remark. 

"After machhli (fish), mutton and mangalsutra, it is now the turn of 'mujra'. Does it behove the prime minister of the country to speak such language?" asked Jha.
