He further alleged that about some Bihari workers were also harassed by a Magistrate in Tamil Nadu who forced them to strip by accusing them of being ganja smugglers. " However, our Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav is celebrating the birthday of MK Stalin, the killer of Bihariyat. He is acting as if he is the spokesperson of Stalin and is busy refuting the media reports in the Assembly. This is the reason why I have filed a complaint in Muzaffarpur court against MK Stalin who is accused of killing Biharis," said Prakash.
Speaking to reporters Prakash's advocate Manoj Kumar Singh said that the complaint has been lodged under stringent sections of the law adding that there are allegations of murder, disappearing of dead bodies and insulting the people of Bihar in it.
