RAGHOPUR: Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on Friday took a swipe at the Union Human Resource Development Minister Smriti Irani for speaking on law and order in Bihar, asking Prime Minister Narendra Modi to appoint Irani as the country's Home Minister."Irani came here yesterday and spoke of law and order situation in Bihar. She has no knowledge of the issue but still she is speaking -- why doesn't she say why Centre has cut the funds for the Sarv Shiksha Abhiyan? If she knows so much of law and order, why doesn't Modi make her the Home Minister?" Kumar said at a rally in Raghopur on Friday. ET had reported on Friday that Irani had asked women voters to not vote for return of 'jungle-raj' of Lalu-Nitish, saying rape cases in Bihar had gone up by 21% in the last two years.Kumar said Gujarat government had to postpone Panchayat elections in the state through an ordinance citing law and order issues due to a ongoing agitation there. "They scare people of Bihar of Jungle Raj returning and cite Gujarat as a model. Has any election in Bihar ever been postponed due to law and order issues? Elections were held in time even in J&K but not Gujarat," Kumar said. He also said Modi had cancelled his rallies in the state on Friday as there is "lot of tension" in the BJP after Phase 1 of the polls. Kumar held as many as 6 rallies on Friday as well.Kumar also warned at the rally of possibility of communal trouble being triggered by some elements ahead of upcoming Dussehra-Moharram festivals. "Be very careful. Someone may throw a bone somewhere, a cow may be slaughtered somewhere, there will be an attempt to spoil the atmosphere," Kumar said. He also accused BJP of raising the caste issue and asked why did they point out that Modi was an OBC PM. "A PM is of the entire country -- he is not of any caste. BJP's development plank is hence a makhauta," Kumar said.Kumar also said that Modi did not have the courage to criticise RSS Chief Mohan Bhagwat's statement that reservations should be reviewed. "You criticise the statement of you have the courage. But RSS ke aage BJP ki kya aukaat hai," Kumar said.
