Breaking News: JD(U) Leaders Under Fire for Serving Mutton During Holy Month | ABP NEWS

As election season heats up in Bihar, an unexpected controversy has stirred political waters — a "Mutton Party" during the holy month of Sawan. The event, held in Lakhisarai, featured key leaders including Union Minister and JD(U) senior leader Lalan Singh and state minister Ashok Choudhary. The feast, intended for local party workers, has now triggered backlash over religious sensitivities linked to the month of Shravan, considered sacred in Hindu tradition. Defending the gathering, Lalan Singh stated, "This was just a local event for supporters. Everyone was served food, nothing more. I hadn’t visited since the Lok Sabha elections." However, critics — including Rohini Acharya, daughter of RJD supremo Lalu Prasad Yadav — took to social media to question the timing and appropriateness of the feast. Meanwhile, political strategist-turned-activist Prashant Kishor also faced social media heat after a video went viral from his Biryani party in Kishanganj. The chaos reportedly erupted due to mismanagement and the massive crowd that turned up for food, not politics. As Bihar heads into a crucial election, the narrative seems to be shifting from manifestos to menus.
