Two separate FIRs were registered on Tuesday against RJD President Lalu Prasad for his "Narbhakshi" (cannibal) comment against BJP chief Amit Shah.

On the other hand, an FIR was filed against Amit Shah by Election Commission in Begusarai for 'chara chor' (fodder thief) barb against Lalu Prasad. 

The RJD president had used "Narbhakshi" barb against Shah on October 1 in reaction to his "chara chor" (fodder thief) remark about him in Patna while talking to mediapersons. Station House Officer of Sachivalaya police station Amrendra Kumar Jha said the case has been registered against Prasad under IPC sections 171(C), 171(F) and 188. Section 171(C) pertains to undue influence at elections, Section 171(F) to punishment for undue influence or personation at an election, while Section 188 relates to disobedience to order duly promulgated by public servant.

Prasad had on September 30 tweeted "A Narbhakshi and exiled should not teach good conduct to Bihar. First he should tell people about his own misdeeds and stringent sections levelled against him."

The vicious comment had came a day after Shah while addressing BJP workers meeting had apparently taken a dig at him by saying that Bihar which was once known by the name of Dr Rajendra Prasad, Loknayak Jayprakash Narayan and Karpoori Thakur was unfortunately today known by the name of "chara chor" (fodder thief).
