Patna, Apr 13 (PTI): The BJP on Sunday filed a police complaint against Congress leader Kanhaiya Kumar in Patna, alleging that he used abusive language against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the RSS during a recent TV interview.
A delegation led by the BJP's media in-charge in Bihar, Danish Iqbal, visited the Kotwali police station and filed the complaint.
Iqbal urged the police to register an FIR against Kumar over the comments.
"Kanhaiya Kumar, who is a part of the 'tukde tukde gang', used abusive language against PM Modi, and the RSS and its ideologies in an interview to a TV channel on April 11. The language that he used in the interview is highly objectionable and unacceptable," Iqbal said.
"We have filed a complaint against him with the police seeking immediate registration of an FIR. We are quite confident that police will take appropriate action," he said.

New Delhi (PTI): The Supreme Court on Thursday deprecated lawyers for filing "bulky" appeals which run into a number of pages and annexing unnecessary documents.
A bench of Justices Abhay S Oka and Ujjal Bhuyan said, "What is this tendency? In synopsis, case law is cited, grounds are there in synopsis. And there is a very bulky compilation. Every matter we see now in Supreme Court, in first part of synopsis people cite quotations then the grounds of appeal are reproduced in synopsis. This must stop."
The bench went on, "What kind of bulky compilation is being thrown at us? The bulk of the compilation depends upon the monetary capacity of the litigant and capacity to engage senior advocate. This is happening everyday. We have forgotten the basic rule that pleadings should not contain law."
The top court expressed "shock" on finding in such compilations synopses of cases, grounds of challenge aside from case laws.
"We deprecate this tendency. A copy of this order shall we forwarded to the Supreme Court advocates on-record association," it added.
