Now, senior member of All India Muslim Personal Law Board (AIMPLB) and Muslim religious leader Maulana Sajjad Nomani has given a big statement regarding this controversy. Maulana Nomani compared CM Nitish Kumar with Taliban and called him a mental patient. He even appealed to the Muslim leaders of Janata Dal United to expel Nitish Kumar from the party.
Senior AIMPLB member Maulana Sajjad Nomani said on Thursday (December 18, 2025), ‘It is the misfortune of this country that people who are mentally ill have got the post of Chief Minister of an important state.’ He said, ‘If Taliban declares any dress mandatory for women in their country, then you and I oppose it, but in our country a Chief Minister does not allow a woman to wear the dress of her choice.’
