In a video statement, the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) Rajya Sabha MP expressed his condolences and slammed the Janata Dal (United)-led Bihar government over the incident.

"The day started with a bad news, may God give Mukesh ji and his family the strength to bear this loss..." he said.

"But this is a certificate for the JD(U)-BJP government, that there is no law and order. You can give any rhetorical statements, but the reality is that there are no districts from where such reports are not coming," he said.

The RJD leader said it shows that there is no government in Bihar and the people have lost faith in the state government, he said.

"Incidents of rape, murder and arson are being reported every day. It proves there is not even one per cent government.

"Is this is not jungle raj? A common citizen is not safe. I believe those in government, if they have any shame left, should quit," he said.
