“Allahu-Akbar” chants outside BJP candidate Shreyasi’s office: RJD supporters of Shamshad Alam go on rampage; BJP calls it ‘Jungle Raj 2.0’

Political tension erupts in Jamui amid Bihar Assembly elections; RJD workers allegedly raise “Allah-hu-Akbar” and “Pakistan Zindabad” slogans outside BJP candidate Shreyasi Singh’s office.

What happened:

Amid the ongoing Bihar Assembly elections, political tensions flared up in Jamui city on Friday (November 7, 2025), when a group of RJD workers, reportedly led by RJD candidate Shamshad Alam, gathered outside the campaign office of BJP candidate Shreyasi Singh and created a ruckus, shouting slogans such as “Allah-hu-Akbar.”

According to reports, a large and unruly crowd of RJD supporters marched past the BJP office without permission. During this, the mob allegedly shouted provocative slogans including “Allah-hu-Akbar” and “Pakistan Zindabad”, tore BJP banners and posters, and caused widespread chaos in the area. The sloganeering reportedly continued for nearly half an hour, heightening communal and political tension in the city.

As the situation worsened, local authorities called in a heavy police force. The SDPO and several senior officers reached the spot to control the situation. Despite repeated warnings, when the crowd refused to disperse, police resorted to lathi-charge (baton charge), after which the mob scattered and order was restored.
