In Bihar, Sasaram Congress MP Manoj Kumar was attacked and critically injured near his school in Kudra, a town in the Kaimur district. Kumar had a severe head injury after the attack, which happened early in the day. He was taken to a local hospital for immediate treatment after the assault, sources confirmed.
The severity of his injuries meant that the medical team decided to transfer Kumar to Patna, the state capital, for advanced medical care. Doctors are monitoring his health closely since he has a head injury, and his condition is still critical. The manner of the attack shocked his supporters and the local community, and the reason for the attack was not yet known.
According to reports, unidentified assailants ambushed a local unit leader, Kumar, who was returning from his school in Kudra, which falls under his Sasaram constituency in the Lok Sabha. Investigations into the circumstances of the attack are ongoing, as well as the collection of more information through witness accounts and forensic evidence. Authorities say they are taking all their steps to identify the perpetrators and get them into jail.
At a time when public figures in Bihar are being increasingly targeted with abduction, politicians and community leaders have demanded an increase in security measures for elected representatives following this incident. Manoj Kumar’s colleagues in the Congress Party are also joining the attack wave and have demanded swift action from the authorities.
Police still do not know the reason behind the ongoing attack and haven’t made any arrests as of now. Bihar Police are trying to trace the assailants and stop any further harm.
