Nitish Govt Faces Criticism: Hindu Holidays Reduced, Muslim Holidays Increased| Oneindia
The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) criticized Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar for allegedly reducing the number of school holidays during Hindu festivals while increasing those for Muslim festivals.
Reports suggest the Bihar education department's 2024 holiday calendar eliminated Hartalika Teej and Jitiya holidays while extending Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha (Bakrid) holidays to three days each.
BJP MP Sushil Modi accused the government of an "anti-Hindu" stance, prompting Union Minister Giriraj Singh to claim it was operating on "Islamic religious beliefs." The move sparked outrage, with calls for reinstating Hindu festival holidays.

Indian Overseas Congress Chairman, Sam Pitroda, ignited a firestorm with his recent remarks, drawing criticism for his divisive comments. Pitroda's statement, suggesting that people from different regions of India resemble various ethnic groups, has been met with widespread condemnation, particularly from the Bharatiya Janata Party. This isn't the first time Pitroda has courted controversy; his previous advocacy for an inheritance tax-like law stirred debate. Despite his association with the Congress, the party has made it clear that Pitroda's views do not necessarily align with its stance. The controversy underscores the need for sensitivity and inclusivity in public discourse, especially in a diverse and multicultural society like India's. The reactions to Pitroda's remarks reflect the importance of fostering unity and respect for all communities within the nation. Watch the various responses to this issue for a deeper understanding of the impact of such statements on the public discourse and political landscape.
