Patna, Nov 7 (NationPress) Prime Minister Narendra Modi, while continuing his critique of the RJD-led mahagathbandhan during the campaign for the second phase of elections, highlighted the prosperous development of Dalmiya Nagar. He emphasized how the entire industrial landscape and the city were left in ruins due to the chaos and mismanagement of the RJD-led jungle raj era.
Speaking at a significant rally in Bhabua, PM Modi remarked that Dalmiya Nagar, an ancient and major industrial hub established during British colonial rule, once stood as a beacon of opportunity for Bihar’s youth. However, it became a casualty of jungle raj, leading to the disappearance of numerous factories and mills, thus depriving the people of Rohtas of substantial employment prospects.
“A vibrant industrial town was being constructed over decades of relentless effort, but the advent of misgovernance brought forth the jungle raj. Extortion, corruption, and violence became rampant, swiftly dismantling everything,” PM Modi cautioned, urging the electorate to be vigilant in their voting decisions.
The Prime Minister also criticized former governments for failing to tap into Kaimur’s tourism potential, stating that the area, rich in diverse flora and stunning landscapes, was overlooked during the RJD’s tenure.
He pointed out that this region suffered under the grip of red terror during the RJD rule and credited the NDA government with starting to attract tourists to its natural beauty.
Further, the Prime Minister criticized the two Yuvrajs – Rahul and Tejashwi – for placing their interests above the foundational figures of the constitution, including Babasaheb Ambedkar.
“These individuals show respect only to their own families. The Congress undermined Baba Saheb Ambedkar's legacy because his influence surpassed that of their royal family. They similarly sidelined other notable leaders like Babu Jagjivan Ram and Sitaram Kesri,” he stated.
Additionally, PM Modi condemned the two 'naamdars' for their dismissive attitude towards Lord Ram and his birthplace, accusing them of avoiding visits to Ayodhya due to their appeasement politics, fearing a loss of support from their voter base.
