African-American singer Mary Millben on Nov 08 slammed Nitish Kumar for his derogatory remarks in the state assembly. Millben then called on a “courageous” woman to “step up” and declare her candidature for Bihar Chief Minister. She also lauded the Indian Prime Minister saying that he stands for women and is the best leader for India and the progress of Indian citizens. Millben made the remarks while reacting to Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar’s use of derogatory language in the state assembly to explain the role of education and women in population control. Soon after Nitish Kumar’s speech, massive outrage erupted as several BJP leaders blasted on the CM and asked his resignation.
