Rohini Acharya, daughter of RJD supremo Lalu Prasad took a swipe at JD(U) president Nitish Kumar saying "garbage has gone into the dustbin" as he stepped down as Bihar's Chief Minister to form a new government with the support of BJP.
Kumar resigned from the position, citing, "things were not working well" for him within the Mahagathbandhan, a coalition he had joined less than 18 months ago, and the opposition bloc INDIA.

Earlier in the week, she had posted controversial statements, which were subsequently deleted.
The RJD later asserted that Acharya's social media posts targeted Prime Minister Narendra Modi rather than Bihar CM Nitish Kumar.
"Comments made in another context are withdrawn when vested interests use these for political purposes," conveyed an RJD spokesperson, responding to queries about the removed posts on 'X.' In those posts, Acharya, residing in Singapore, made no explicit mention of any leader.
Screenshots of the deleted posts, in Hindi, gained traction on social media. One of them reportedly read "those who are ideologically adrift, claiming to be the champions of socialism."
This interpretation was seen as an indirect critique of the Bihar CM, a key ally of the RJD, who had criticized "dynasty politics" just a day before.
