Posters ridicule Manjhi, BJP outside Nitish residence

February 22, 2015 17:30

Several posters and hoardings ridiculing former Chief Minister Jitan Ram Manjhi and rival BJP have surfaced around his residence.

In varied colours and sizes, the posters are propped onbamboo poles for several metres along the stretch of 7, Circular Road which is Kumar's residence. Drawing inspiration from the 'Mahabharata', one poster shows Kumar dressed as Arjun, shooting arrows at his rivals, including Manjhi and senior BJP leader Sushil Kumar.

Another one portrays Manjhi on a sinking boat surrounded by BJP leaders from the state. Yet another portrays Kumar being eulogized by saffron party stalwarts such as former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee and Lal Krishna Advani.

The words that they said in his praise are prominently printed to grab the attention of passers-by.
