New Delhi, Oct 29 (NationPress) In a passionate speech delivered in Muzaffarpur, Leader of the Opposition (LoP) and Congress MP Rahul Gandhi fiercely criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar. He accused them of failing the youth and transforming governance into mere political theatrics.
The LoP in the Lok Sabha pointed out that PM Modi's politics is characterized by “drama and deception,” referencing the PM's recent symbolic “Yamuna bath” during Chhath Puja.
“There was no Yamuna ji there—just a pond filled with clean water for Modi ji. Clean water was brought through pipes for his photo-op while the real India bathes in polluted water,” LoP Rahul Gandhi said.
“If you ask Modi ji to dance for your vote, he will do it. Try it—say, ‘Modi ji, don’t give speeches, just dance, and we’ll vote for you.’ He will dance,” he claimed.
LoP Rahul Gandhi accused the BJP of resisting social justice and sidestepping the caste census. “I asked the Prime Minister in Parliament to conduct a caste census. He didn’t utter a single word,” he stated.
“Wherever you look—in education, health, bureaucracy, or the judiciary—the BJP is against social justice. But caste census will happen, whether they like it or not,” he emphasized.
Discussing Bihar’s development, LoP Rahul Gandhi remarked that the state’s youth have been deprived of opportunities for decades under Nitish Kumar's administration.
“For 20 years, Nitish Kumar has run the government, but what has he done for education, health, or jobs?” he questioned, labeling the JD(U)-BJP alliance as a “remote-controlled government” operated from Delhi.
He criticized Bihar’s economic downturn, attributing it to PM Modi’s policies. “Look at your shirt, your phone—it says ‘Made in China’. Modi destroyed small Indian businesses with demonetization and GST. We want to see ‘Made in Bihar’—phones, cameras, clothes, all made here to provide jobs for Bihar’s youth,” he declared.
Highlighting Bihar’s historical significance, LoP Rahul Gandhi asserted that his alliance would rejuvenate education and restore Bihar’s intellectual heritage.
“Nalanda University once connected India to the world. We will make Bihar an international education hub again,” he promised, vowing to establish the country’s best university in Bihar within five years.
He further called on voters to support the Mahagathbandhan. “This is our guarantee—every caste, every religion, every community will have a voice in government. Bihar will no longer just build India’s cities; it will shape its own future,” he concluded.
