‘Would have evaded arrest had they not uploaded reels’: Bihar CM Samrat Choudhary on Jamui case

Opposition leader Tejashwi Yadav criticized Bihar Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary for allegedly revealing the identity of a girl who was sexually assaulted in Jamui district. The incident occurred on September 24 when the minor, along with her family, met Choudhary to seek assurance of swift justice and strong punishments for the culprits within a month.

Yadav accused Choudhary of violating the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act, stating that the CM had failed his Class VII exam, was convicted in seven murders, and deserved the strongest possible punishment. The Opposition leader shared a screenshot of Choudhary's social media post, which showed him with the victim and her family, and urged the Bihar Police to file an FIR against the Chief Minister for breaching the girl's privacy.
