Taking potshots at Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Giriraj Singh on Saturday said the former was jealous of his party's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi and was quarrelling like a like a 'dehati aurat' (rural woman) with him.
The BJP leader said that it reflects the Bihar Chief Minister's small mindedness
"He is behaving like a 'dehati aurat' and quarrelling with Narendra Modi out of jealousy. It does not seem that he is a Chief Minister the way he is acting against Narendra Modi out of jealousy," he told media here.
Singh also alleged that there was insufficient security provided for Modi yesterday and security protocols were not followed today.
Modi, who arrived in Patna last night, is meeting the families of the six people who were killed in serial blasts ahead of his massive 'Hunkar' rally on October 27.
