Janata Dal (United) leader KC Tyagi criticised senior BJP leader Kailash Vijayvargiya’s comment comparing Shatrughan Sinha to a dog on the road. Tyagi added that the saffron party has lost ‘mental stability’ after its dismal performance in Bihar elections.

First the Prime Minister’s remark on minorities, then VK Singh’s remark on Dalits, and now Vijayvargiya ji is comparing his senior party leaders with dog. This is disgraceful, he (Sinha) is a senior party leader and a veteran actor, such statements do not suit a politician.
<b>KC Tyagi, JD(U) Leader </b>

Actor-turned-politician and BJP member Sinha met with Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) President Lalu Prasad Yadav a day after the Grand Alliance’s landslide victory in the Bihar Assembly elections. Vijayvargiya equated Sinha’s act to that of a dog chasing a car.

Union minister Arun Jaitley stopped short of slamming Vijayvargiya for his comment.

Haven’t seen the statement, but we expect all party leaders to maintain decency in their speech.
<b>Arun Jaitley, Union Finance Minister</b>

Meanwhile, Sinha’s recent tweet indicates that he has moved on.

When the counting of votes showed a clear victory for the Grand Alliance, Sinha also took a dig at the Prime Minister for his Bihari vs Bahari comment. The Grand Alliance (JDU-RJD-Congress) beat the National Democratic Alliance (BJP-RLSP-LJP-HAM) by a huge margin.
