The head of Imarat Shariah issued a statement accusing Nitish Kumar of betraying his secular promises through his alliance with the BJP and support for the Waqf Bill.

“A decision has been taken not to attend the government (sarkaari) Iftaar on March 23... This decision has been taken in view of your support for the Waqf Bill, which threatens to worsen the economic and educational backwardness of Muslims,” a letter, signed by office secretary of the Imarat Shariah, read.

The JD (U) rejected the letter calling it “fake” and blamed Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) for the drama.

Questions should also be asked to the RJD as to what have they done for Muslims,
