DEBATE: Congress' 'B For Beedi, B For Bihar' Tweet Ignites Political Firestorm | India Today

A political debate has erupted over a now-deleted tweet by the Kerala Congress. The post commented on the GST on beedis being cut from 28% to 18%, allegedly stating, "B for Bihar. B for Beedi." The BJP and JDU have termed this an insult to the people of Bihar. A BJP spokesperson argued, "You are trying to equate Bihar with Beedi, and that's an insult." The Congress spokesperson defended the post, stating the intention was to highlight that beedis are as harmful as other tobacco products and that there was no insult to Bihar. The discussion also referenced Rahul Gandhi's meeting with beedi workers in Murshidabad in February 2024 to promise them a better livelihood, and past remarks by other political leaders concerning Bihar. #bihar #beedi #congress #itwebvideos #bjp #jdu #gst #politicaldebate #tweetrow #indiatoday #biharpride #indianpolitics #news #currentaffairs Subscribe to India Today for NEW VIDEOS EVERY DAY and make sure to enable Push Notifications so you'll never miss a new video.
