The BJP has slammed Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar over “VIP culture” in the State after a video clip emerged on social media in which an ambulance carrying a patient was purportedly stopped when his cavalcade was passing through Marine Drive in Patna.
Mr. Kumar, along with Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Prasad Yadav, was inspecting the ongoing work of the proposed extension and beautification of JP Ganga Path, also known as Marine Drive, on Monday. The cavalcade was passing through Gai Ghat when the incident happened.
The ambulance, carrying the patient who was about to be admitted in the emergency ward, was stopped by the side of the road by the traffic police. In the 33-second video, the patient’s relatives were seen crying inside the ambulance.
