Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has been attacked at Bakhtiyarpur in Patna. He went to a hospital for attending a programme. When he was offering flowers on a statue there, a young man came and climbed up in hurry. The guards tried to catch him when the young man attempted to slap Bihar CM on the cheek. However, the slap hit him in the arm.
