Nitish Kumar's Explanation on Population Control, Girls' Education Creates Row| Oneindia

Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar made controversial remarks, emphasising girls' education to curb population growth in the state assembly.

The comments elicited smiles, notably from Deputy Tejashwi Yadav, while some women MLAs seemed uncomfortable.

Kumar's statements followed the release of a contentious caste survey report on economic conditions.

In a video, he cited a drop in fertility rates from 4.3% to 2.9%, asserting that a matriculate girl averages 2%, and completing school education reduces it to 1.7% nationally.

Kangana Ranaut knocks Tejasvi Surya in flub, Tejashwi Yadav reacts | Viral Video | Oneindia News

During an election rally in Himachal Pradesh, Kangana Ranaut, now a BJP candidate, inadvertently mixed up Tejashwi Yadav with BJP MP Tejasvi Surya while criticising the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader for "eating fish". However, it was Yadav who had previously faced criticism for a video showing him consuming fish during Navratri. The rally, held in Mandi, highlighted Ranaut's political foray in the Lok Sabha seat. In her address, she not only attacked Yadav but also accused Surya of "hooliganism" and referenced his alleged fish-eating habits. #LSPolls2024 #Elections2024 #LokSabhaElections2024 #TejashwiYadav #KanganaRanaut #TejasviSurya #MachliRemark #PoliticalFlub #ViralVideo #PoliticalDrama #ElectionSeason #SocialMediaBuzz #PublicReactions ~HT.99~PR.152~ED.101~
