New Delhi, Feb 25 (NationPress) - Union Minister Chirag Paswan on Tuesday delivered a robust rebuttal to RJD chief Lalu Prasad Yadav's claims regarding Prime Minister Narendra Modi's pledges, following Yadav’s accusations of deceit. Paswan categorically rejected these allegations, emphasizing that the persistent criticisms from the Opposition will not diminish PM Modi’s escalating popularity and trustworthiness.
In his pointed remarks, Paswan stated, "The Opposition has become accustomed to making accusations and then evading accountability. India is a vibrant democracy, and the populace is closely monitoring these claims. Their decisions are informed by what they observe. There was a Chief Minister who arrived in Delhi with ambitious promises, yet after ten years, the people ousted him. Similarly, anyone who spreads falsehoods in this nation will face repercussions, as the ultimate power resides with the people."
Paswan emphasized that PM Modi’s popularity continues to strengthen, as evidenced by the public’s unwavering support during his repeated elections.
"It’s no small achievement to be elected by the people three consecutive times. In the past, such occurrences were rare, but this time, despite the united front of all Opposition parties, the public has reaffirmed their choice in PM Modi," he added.
Recently, the RJD leader posted a video on social media following PM Modi's rally in Bhagalpur, where he referenced the PM's earlier speeches and labeled his commitments as deceptive.
In response to Lalu’s critiques of the PM’s historical promises, Paswan remarked, "When Laluji speaks about lies, I must remind him of the 1990s, a period when Bihar suffered due to misguided policies and rampant corruption. Had there been a device to quantify lies back then, it would have shattered under the sheer volume of falsehoods."
Welcoming PM Modi’s visit to Bihar, Paswan stated, "On behalf of my party and the people of Bihar, I extend a heartfelt welcome to the Prime Minister. It is a proud moment that Bihar is now being acknowledged as a crucial state, and as we envision a developed Bharat, Bihar will significantly contribute to that vision."
