Overview
- Tejashwi Yadav, speaking Tuesday in Patna, released a date-wise list of 50 incidents reported in the month after Samrat Choudhary became chief minister on April 15.
- He accused the BJP-led state government of shielding offenders and said newspapers show daily reports of rape, assault, and killings of women across districts.
- He announced a statewide agitation, saying the party will escalate the issue beyond the legislature to demand justice and stronger protection for women.
- He argued women’s welfare is being treated as optics, citing a claim that 65% of women are anaemic and pointing to pending promised instalments after a ₹10,000 transfer under the Mukhyamantri Mahila Rojgar Yojana.
- He invoked the Muzaffarpur shelter-home abuse case to question accountability, noting his list draws on media reports and that coverage so far shows no formal state rebuttal.
