A person threw onions and potatoes at Nitish Kumar while the Bihar chief minister was addressing an election rally at Harlakhi in Madhubani district on Tuesday.

Although the missiles, thrown to register protest over rising prices, reached the dais, they did not hit the chief minister.

Nitish’s security personnel shielded him, and the chief minister asked the person to hurl more objects at him. Nitish later asked everyone not to pay attention to the thrower and let him go.
