Since a few months Bihar is edging towards violence and lawlessness . According to statistics in January, already there were more than 500 murders reported within two months ( link given below)

Now things seem to have deteriorated further with the politicians and their kin taking law into their hands , in one recent instance killing a youngster for daring to overtake the vehicle of the MLC's son!!! Later it was the murder of several scribes and threat being issued too them. Since the Rationalists, Intellectuals and the Award wapsi gang has decided to remain silent thereby conveying that what is happening in Bihar is nothing out of the usual, I guess the center will have to take some much needed action if the trend continues..Nitish prefers to rremain silent since it is a question of pleasing the ally or else he may be dethroned ..

Violence is a way of life in both UP and Bihar sometimes less and sometimes more. Today due to polarised politics it is seen as a scoring point against each other by parties.I served in UP near to Bihar border in the mid seventies when polarisation like today was not there. I was amazed by the amount of violence I would see and hear about and local.people would not bother as they were obviously used to it. So it is not an index of jungle raj. These states are always under jungle raj irrespective of which party is in power.

Nitish returned to power in Patna on the promise of Good Governance. Though  Nitish agreed for the  CBI enquiry in to the murder of the journalist of Rajdeo Ranjan,, the family members of the journalist are alleging the involvement of don turned poitician and a prominent RJD leader. At this juncture, a free and fair probe is necessary in order to keep the promise of Nitish for a good governance.

situation was improved in Bihar when Latish was CM without support of Lalu Parsad.

A spate of recent incidents say that Jungle Raj has come back to Bihar. First it was the murder of a journalist. After that, JD(U) MLC, manorama Devi's son, Rocky Yadav, allegedly shot dead an 18 year old for overtaking his car. Prior to this, the police failed to arrest Nawada MLA, Rajballaby Yadav. All these incidents, Nitish, who came to power with an assurance of Good governance, a perception of inaction. It's only after a fair and free CBI enquiry Nitish's good governance will be proved.

Don't forget Nitish party have less MLA than Lalu Parsad RJD.

Nitish has a record of good governance. Now there are no connection between Nitish and Lalu, the Dana Chor.

All these incidents, Nitish, who came to power with an assurance of Good governance, made the opposiyion make noise and demanded Nitish's resignation. The opposition parties alleged inaction on the part of Nitish. It's only after a fair and free CBI enquiry Nitish's good governance will be proved.

That was when Nitish and his party was in alliance with BJP. That was probably the best period for BJP when a lot of growth happened after Lalu's family rule that led to probaby a worst phase in the history of Bihar . But now with Lalu back at the helm of affairs it is slowly going back to the same old days of Jungle Raj again. The irony is that a criminal minded person like Lalu is voted back to power by the people and he roams free and in control inspite of facing so many corruption charges against him. I guess like people getting like leaders !

Sometimes I feel that a spell of martial Law may benefit Bihar. The state needs surgery and it's a pity that the masses voted in Lalu and his coterie. I wonder if the Indian voter is mature? It's food for thought.

Nothing happen with martial law. Indeed education ratio in Bihar is much less than other states of India. They like Lalu's style politics. Machhi Khao, Tari Pio or Mast Raho.

 

Jungle Raj exist in Bihar it can end if Bihar get Good Governance. Public is responsible for this Govt in Bihar is as per his choice and choice come by vote.

yeah if the people only wants the jungle raj then what the minister can do, if the people are saying that jungle raj is coming in Bihar then it is just because of the voter. 

I think there is Jungle Raj in the entire country. Is any state immune to it ? Maharashtra, Haryana, etc

That is an overstatement, there is no jungle raj in the entire country, agreed there are increased crime rates everywhere but stating that it is jungle raj is not fair.

I doubt if any of the states are as bad as Bihar and UP which seems as bad ! With criminals governing the state what else can one expect ? Mulayam Singhs is another family oriented party where his sons, daughter in laws, nephews etc etc form the face of the party..In that respect BSP may be slightly better !

Violence by politicians who are in power towards oppostion and citizens definitely a cause of gravest concern and needs to be rectified. It is perhaps beginning of it but still the cm of Bihar has the time so he should rectify it or otherwise there could be chaos everywhere.

Hi my comment has not been understood. What is jungle Raj? It means when normal law and order break down and I am right Bihar is not the exception but the rule. Lets look at a few states.

1. Haryana, when the Jat agitation broke out and Rs 10000 crore of property was destroyed and entire state in anarchy, then what is this? It is jungle Raj

2 In east India there is an isurrection on for last 50 years and yesterday 6 soldiers of Assam rifles were killed. There are also periodic communal riots. Hundreds get killed. This is Jungle Raj

3. Central India is in the grip of Maoists and I recollect just last month, I wanted to drive from Dumka to Patna, but was advised not to go, as the road is unsafe. This is jungle raj

4 In Mahrashtra, in Mumbai, the caste division in villages is so steep that lower caste are often killed for drinking water from the village well. Mumbai police ( many of them) owe allegience to Don < Dawood. He runs a veritable empire in Mumbai and now I learn that the don even  contacted a minster of the Mahrashtra cabinter. With hundreds of farmers committing suicde for lack of food and ability to pay loans. All this is jungle Raj.

Dont go by literal meanings , most of India is under jungle Raj . I havent mentioned Kashmir where the blunder of Modi in playing Tango with PDF means at least 2/3 jawans are killed EVERY DAY> Pandits being thrown out was jungle Raj.

No more to add. I think I shall write an article on this.
