Iftar parties have become an issue of politics these days in Bihar as leaders of different political parties are trying to score points over each other.
Ironically, Union Home Minister Amit Shah is going to visit Bihar on a two-day tourfrom Saturday. He will also participate in the Vijayotsav program of Veer Kunwar Singh in Jagdishpur, Bhojpur. During this, the record for hoisting the most tricolor will also be made. However, there is no schedule of him meeting the CM, and before that Nitish Kumar visiting Rabri Devi residence has made political analysts work overtime.
