Bihar Police Chief Faces Flak Over “Aukat” Remark On Rhea Chakraborty, Apologizes

Bihar’s Director General of Police Gupteshwar Pandey made a nasty comment declaring that Rhea Chakraborty “does not have the aukat (stature)” to comment on Chief Minister Nitish Kumar.

Celebrating the Supreme Court order today in Sushant Singh Rajput case, Bihar’s Director General of Police Gupteshwar Pandey made a nasty comment declaring that Rhea Chakraborty “does not have the aukat (stature)” to comment on Chief Minister Nitish Kumar.

The government of Bihar, along with its police force, has claimed a big victory and “vindication” after the Supreme Court ruled that the FIR registered in Patna by Sushant Singh Rajput’s family was correct and also upheld the move to hand over the case to the CBI.

“Rhea Chakraborty does not have the aukat to comment on the Bihar Chief Minister. What the police did was correct, and according to legal and constitutional provisions,” the Bihar police chief told reporters.

Rhea Chakraborty had referred to Nitish Kumar in her statement to the Supreme Court on politics playing a role in Bihar’s investigations into the FIR registered by Sushant Singh Rajput’s father and the state’s move to hand over the case to the CBI. The Bihar police chief was responding on the same matter.

“Because of the support that the Bihar Chief Minister gave us, there is hope today for justice for Sushant Singh Rajput. The fight has come to this point because of the Chief Minister’s support,” Mr. Pandey added.

Many on the internet were irked after his remark and pointed out that he had no right to question someone’s stature publically.

Pandey apologized for his remarks later.

“If someone is hurt by my comments then I apologise”, the Bihar Police chief told Marya Shakil on CNNNews18.
