NEW DELHI: Bihar police on Friday arrested a man named Mohammad Rizvi for allegedly abusing Prime Minister Narendra Modi during Congress leader Rahul Gandhi "Voter Adhikar Yatra" in Darbhanga .
According to officials, the accused is from Bhopura village in Jale assembly constituency.
"The accused who allegedly passed derogatory remarks against PM Modi and his mother at an INDIA bloc event in Darbhanga yesterday, detained," Darbhanga SSP said.
This comes after a video of some men allegedly hurling abuses at Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his mother from the venue of Rahul Gandhi's rally in Bihar went viral.
The video, shared on social media by several accounts, showed unidentified individuals using Hindi slurs against PM Modi from a dais of Rahul Gandhi's rally. The Congress leader is holding 'Voter Adhikar Yatra' in Bihar along with RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav.
Union home minister Amit Shah condemned the Congress' purported video and said that under Rahul Gandhi, the oldest party's politics has reached its lowest level.
He further said that this "abusive" rally shows that the Congress party has returned to its old ways and character, through which it has always poisoned the country's political culture.
Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar also condemned the incident and termed it deplorable.
"During the Voter Adhikar Yatra in Darbhanga, the use of highly inappropriate language against the Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi and his late mother from the platform of Congress and RJD is utterly deplorable, and I condemn it," Nitish wrote on X.
After the video goes viral, former Indian Youth Congress National Secratary, Mohd Naushad apologised for the remarks and said that the party would never stoop to such cheap and disgraceful behavior.
He also said that he condemned such remarks made against the Prime Minister but suggested that it is possible that this was done by opposition or people with "vested interests."

दरभंगा में वोटर अधिकार यात्रा के दौरान कांग्रेस और राजद के मंच से माननीय प्रधानमंत्री श्री नरेन्द्र मोदी जी और उनकी स्व॰ माता जी के विरूद्ध जिस प्रकार की अभद्र भाषा का प्रयोग किया गया है वह अत्यंत अशोभनीय है और मैं इसकी निंदा करता हूं।
