What is the whole matter?

Union Minister Giriraj Singh’s ‘Hindu Swabhiman Yatra’ started on October 18 from Bhagalpur. The yatra passed through Katihar, Purnia, and Araria before reaching Kishanganj on October 22. During his public address, he spoke on issues like Bangladeshi infiltration and made other statements. AIMIM leaders have strongly objected to these statements, saying they promote communal division in society. That is why AIMIM leaders have filed a complaint against Giriraj Singh in the Kishanganj court, alleging that his statements are inflammatory and harm social harmony.
