Elderly man made to spit and lick before entering Sarpanch's house
In a bizarre incident, an old man was made to spit and lick as a punishment for entering the Sarpanch's house without knocking. The incident took place in the Ajaipur village of Noorsarai block in Nalanda, the home district of Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar. The old man had gone to meet the sarpanch in order to avail a government scheme. The man was also beaten up with slippers by at least two women. Bihar Cabinet Minister Nand Kishore Yadav on Friday condemned the Nalanda incident and assured that action will be taken against the culprits. Yadav's statement comes after an elderly-looking man was allegedly made to spit and lick his saliva off the floor as a punishment for entering the Sarpanch's house without knocking. Yadav said, "I totally condemn this act and such incidents will not be tolerated in the state. We will take strict action against the culprits. The people of the state should trust BJP and its members. We will see to it that incidents like these never happen again". -PTC News
