Patna, Feb 10 (NationPress) Bihar BJP state president Dilip Jaiswal launched a pointed critique against RJD leader Lalu Prasad Yadav, accusing him of engaging in dynastic politics and urging him to announce a Chief Ministerial candidate who is not a family member ahead of the forthcoming Bihar Assembly elections.
Addressing reporters on Monday, Jaiswal stated, "Lalu Prasad Yadav claims to be a champion of social justice. If that is the case, why hasn’t he named any leader outside his family as the Chief Ministerial candidate? The truth is, he is incapable of thinking beyond his own family."
Lalu Prasad Yadav has previously declared Tejashwi Yadav as the Chief Ministerial face for his party and the alliance in the upcoming Bihar Assembly elections.
Dilip Jaiswal also criticized Tejashwi Yadav, accusing him of deceiving the public with freebie schemes such as the Mai-Bahin Maan Yojana and providing free electricity.
"Look at what happened to Arvind Kejriwal in Delhi. He distributed the most freebies, yet the people rejected him. The same fate awaits Tejashwi Yadav in Bihar," Jaiswal remarked.
In response to Tejashwi Yadav’s "Ek Mauka (One Chance)" appeal to the citizens of Bihar, Jaiswal outrightly dismissed it.
"The people of Bihar are well aware of Tejashwi’s governance style. If he gains power, he will register all lands in Bihar under his name. The citizens will not take that gamble," he asserted.
Jaiswal reiterated the NDA's strong position in Bihar, commending Chief Minister Nitish Kumar for his effective governance, zero corruption, and policies favorable to farmers.
"If someone inquires, ‘Bihar Me Ka Ba (What is in Bihar)?’ I will respond—Nitish Kumar is in Bihar! JD-U and BJP are in Bihar! Development and good governance are in Bihar! And it will continue to be so in the future," Jaiswal proclaimed.
As Bihar prepares for a pivotal election, the BJP and JD-U are strengthening their alliance while the RJD faces mounting scrutiny over its dynastic politics.
