Banners have come up overnight in Bengaluru’s Race Course road, Windsor Manor Bridge, and on the Airport road near Hebbal attacking Bihar’s Chief Minister Nitish Kumar. One of the banners termed the Bihar CM as 'The Unstable Prime Ministerial Contender', while slamming him for Sultanganj bridge collapse. The banner also had the dates of the incident. Another banner read, "Nitish Kumar's gift to Bihar that keeps collapsing" and "The man who builds underwater bridges".
The Bengaluru police immediately took down the banners, but it is not known who put them up. Investigation is underway to find out who put the posters up. A little ahead on Race Course Road is the Taj West End hotel where 26 opposition parties, who have united against the BJP, are holding their joint meeting on July 18 ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
Several BJP leaders have also taken to social media to attack the meeting, calling it “the Bengaluru episode of big tamasha. ”BY Vijayendra, son of former Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa shared a poster of the meeting on Twitter and said, “hearty welcome to all the future PM aspirants! united we stand, united we fall!”
Other leaders like former MLA CT Ravi, National General Secretary BL Santhosh too joined in to ridicule the opposition meet.
HEARTY WELCOME to all the future PM aspirants!
"United We Stand, UNITED WE FALL" !

'United We Stand in Corruption & Loot!' seems to be the motto of the Leaderless Opposition 'Alliance' that has gathered in Bengaluru.
A flock of mutually opposing leaders having an infamous record of scamming over 20 lakh cr during UPA rule!️♀️ Maha'Thug'Bandhan is a jolly…
