Patna: Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar today said he was "aghast" at the comments made by some Bharatiya Janata Party leaders on the issue of the tragic killing of two Dalit children in Haryana.

"Aghast at the senseless comment made by some BJP leaders including Union Minister on tragic Dalit killings in Haryana," the Chief Minster tweeted.

The comment came after Union Minister VK Singh blamed a family feud for the burning to death of two Dalit children in a Haryana village, and said the government cannot be blamed if someone throws stones at a dog.
