Sushil Kumar Modi, the Deputy Chief Minister of Bihar on Saturday not only blamed rats for causing the devastating floods in the state but also held the
Congress party and Lalu Prasad Yadav's Government responsible for the same.
Deputy Chief Minister told ANI that "This is not a matter of today, this is happening from last 50 years. Rats damaged the river embankments, which caused the flood. Rats are not the only factor behind this. This issue has been taking place since the time the Congress and Lalu Yadav's Government were in power. They all are responsible for this,"
On Friday, after reviewing the flood situation the Bihar Water Resource Minister Lalan Singh claimed that rats had damaged the river embankments that in turn caused the floods.
The big rivers such as Kamla Balan, Kosi, Gandak and Bagmati as per the reports broke their mud embankments, displacing over 1.70 crore population and causing floods in half of the state.
The flood created a lot of damage in the state.
