BPSC official faces criticism for comparing student protesters to barking dogs
A Bihar Public Service Commission (BPSC) official, Rajesh Kumar Singh, triggered a controversy after using the phrase, "Hathi chale bazaar, kutta bhaunke hazaar" (the elephant walks while a thousand dogs bark), in response to demonstrations by job seekers. RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav condemned the comment as "shameful" and stated that such behavior is unacceptable. Following the backlash, Rajesh claimed his statement was misinterpreted and offered an apology.
