Following his Mahakumbh snan, he took to social media platform X to take a jibe at opposition leaders including Lalu Prasad and Mamata Banerjee. In his post, he wrote, “Well brother, I have also taken a holy dip at Kumbh. If this causes unease for some, there’s nothing I can do about it. I suppose Lalu Prasad ji and Mamata Didi might have a bigger issue with it.”
His remarks have triggered political reactions, with many seeing it as a direct attack on the opposition.
