The CBI conducted multiple raids on the office and residence of RJD MLC Sunil Singh in Patna, Rajya Sabha MP Asfaq Karim in Katihar, RS MP Fayyaz Ahmed in Madhubani, Ex-MLC Subodh Rai in Vaishali and ex-MLA Abu Dojana in Sitamarhi.


"CM Nitish Kumar was aware of the CBI raid and he informed RJD leaders about the same in advance. Tejashwi Yadav has made Nitish Kumar a rubber stamp to protect themselves from various scams. Nitish Kumar is protecting criminals. As a result, the crime graph is rocketing in Bihar," Jaiswal alleged.


In a tweet, Sanjay Jaiswal said, "The information about raiding the ED is only with the Chief Minister. He has started work as a protector of RJD so that he can be declared the prime ministerial candidate by RJD. BJP is working on Mission 36 for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections and will win".



He also said that Union Home Minister Amit Shah is coming to Bihar for two days on September 23 and 24, and will do a rally on September 23 in Purnea and 24 in Kishanganj under `Mission 36` for the Lok Sabha election 2024.

Jaiswal also levelled allegations against district administrations in the Seemanchal area and said that district police of Purnea, Araria, Kishanganj, Katihar and others are registering FIR against 'Gorakshaks' (cattle protectors) for saving cows from slaughtering.
