Feel Sad Supporting…: Chirag Paswan Slams Nitish Govt Over Law And Order

Union Minister and Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas) leader Chirag Paswan on Saturday launched a scathing attack on the Nitish Kumar-led NDA government, saying he is saddened to support a government that is unable to curb murders, kidnappings, loot, robbery, and rape. Paswan further lashed out at the Nitish government in Bihar, saying that the way crime is happening in Bihar, it seems as if the administration is completely incapable of stopping these incidents. "I feel sad that I am supporting such a government here... The way murders, kidnappings, looting, robbery, rapes have taken place one after the other in Bihar, and now it seems as if the administration is completely incapable of stopping these incidents. If it continues like this, then it will create a very frightening situation in our state,' Paswan said. Paswan's remark came after a 26-year-old woman participating in a Home Guard recruitment test on July 24 in Gaya was allegedly gang-raped inside an ambulance while being taken to a hospital after she collapsed during a physical test. The LJP (Ram Vilas) president, part of the ruling National Democratic Alliance (NDA), said that it seems the Bihar government has "completely bowed down" in front of criminals, referencing a retired health department official being shot at by unknown assailants in Gaya district. He said that if such incidents aren't curtailed, then it will create a frightening situation in the state. "The way there have been criminal incidents one after another, and the way the government has bowed its head down in front of criminals. It is true that the incident is as condemnable as it is embarrassing, and an arrest also happened. But why are such incidents like murder, loot, dacoity, rape, one after another, happening in Bihar? It looks like the government is totally unsuccessful in curtailing these incidents. If this keeps going on, then it will create a very frightening situation in our state," Paswan said. Earlier this month, Chirag attacked the Nitish-led state government over the law and order situation, saying that 'the morale of the criminals were at its highest in the state. "In Biharsharif, Nalanda, criminals brutally murdered 16-year-old Himanshu Paswan and 20-year-old Anu Kumar by shooting them. This incident is extremely unfortunate and condemnable. This heinous event not only shakes humanity but also shows that law and order in Bihar have completely collapsed. Crime in the state is at its peak, and the fact that such an incident was carried out by criminals in the home district of the honourable Chief Minister clearly indicates that the morale of criminals is at its highest," Paswan said in a post on X.

Lost Your Wallet? Here's How To Quickly Get Back Your Aadhaar, PAN And Other Vital Documents

In today's busy public transport and crowded streets, incidents of purse theft have become increasingly common. Often, it's not just the money that's lost, but important identity documents like Aadhaar cards, PAN cards, driving licenses, and bank cards too. Losing these essential items can create significant challenges. But there are steps you can take immediately to protect yourself and begin the process of reissuing your documents. First Step: File an FIR If your purse containing important documents is stolen, your first action should be to visit the nearest police station and lodge a complaint. Filing an FIR is not only necessary for security reasons but also becomes an official record. It serves as proof that your documents were stolen, which can protect you from any potential misuse of your identity. Block Your Bank Cards In case ATM or credit cards are also lost, contact your bank immediately and request to block the cards to prevent unauthorised transactions. Most banks offer 24/7 customer support for such emergencies. How to Reapply for Lost Documents: Aadhaar Card You can reprint your Aadhaar card by visiting the UIDAI website or any nearby Aadhaar Seva Kendra. If your mobile number is linked to Aadhaar, you can even request a reprint from home. PAN Card To get a duplicate PAN card, visit the NSDL or UTIITSL website. Use the "Reprint PAN" or "Lost PAN" option. You'll need to submit some identity verification, and a copy of the FIR may be required. Driving License Go to and apply for a duplicate driving license. Upload the FIR copy and necessary documents during the application process. ATM or Credit Cards Visit your bank branch or call customer care to issue a new ATM or credit card. Some banks also allow you to request replacement cards through mobile apps or net banking. While losing your purse is distressing, knowing the correct process can reduce the inconvenience significantly. Always keep a digital backup of important documents and avoid carrying all originals together when commuting.
