Gandhi, who serves as the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha, targeted the Bihar government over an incident where a doctor treating the mother of a rape victim was allegedly assaulted by the accused. He shared a video involving Deputy Chief Minister Vijay Kumar Sinha and criticized the administration on social media, stating, "After 20 years in power, Nitish Ji's double engine government has failed to provide safety, respect, or development to Bihar. Crime, unemployment, and migration have become the true identity of the Nitish-BJP government."

He further claimed that the agenda of the ruling party is to cling to power by making the public feel helpless. Gandhi stated, "The Nitish government has become a symbol of power politics, not justice. It is time to break this cycle of injustice and lead Bihar towards safety, self-respect, and dignity."
In another post, he shared a video of Deputy Chief Minister Sinha, highlighting the dire situation in Bihar. He criticized the insensitivity displayed by government officials towards the grieving family of a rape victim, stating, "While the family is devastated by the loss, the minister (Sinha) pushes them away, disrespecting those who seek justice with a 'promise on my son.'"
Gandhi also pointed out that a BJP leader attempted to insult him while targeting the mothers, sisters, and teachers of Bihar. He lamented that the hunger for power has stripped them of their empathy, and the allure of their positions has blinded them. He questioned whether such individuals could ensure the safety of women and respect for educators, reiterating, "Once again, I say - the Nitish government has become a symbol of power politics, not justice."
