Patna, Oct 24 (NationPress) Bhojpuri film icon and BJP MP Ravi Kishan made a heartfelt plea to the community, encouraging parents to share the history of Bihar with their children and highlight the transformation that has occurred under the NDA government.
“I call upon all parents to enlighten their kids about the state of Bihar two decades ago — how individuals lived in constant fear and how crime dominated society,” Ravi Kishan stated while speaking at a public gathering in the Sandesh block of Bhojpur on Friday.
“Prime Minister Narendra Modi has always emphasized the importance of remembering history. Bihar had a dreadful image previously. But following our government’s rise to power, the speed of development has significantly increased. We are currently on a path of progress, and we must never regress,” Kishan remarked.
Reflecting on his own experiences, the actor-turned-politician noted, “When I arrived in Bihar in 2001 for the filming of Saiyaan Hamaar, the roads were in appalling condition. The environment was frightening — incidents of shootings, ransom, and kidnappings were rampant. However, today, Bihar has undergone a remarkable transformation. I urge everyone to remind their children of the ‘Jungle Raj’ from 20 years ago so that history does not repeat itself.”
Ravi Kishan expressed optimism that Bihar would reach new heights of progress after November 14, asserting that clarity would emerge on the day of the results.
In a strong rebuttal to Tejashwi Yadav's comments labeling Chief Minister Nitish Kumar as old and unwell, Ravi Kishan passionately defended the JDU leader.
“Nitish Kumar has dedicated himself to Bihar. His spouse has never even set foot in the Chief Minister’s residence. He has devoted his entire life to enhancing Bihar and lifting it from despair. His political career is impeccable,” he remarked.
Drawing an emotional parallel, Ravi Kishan questioned, “When our parents age, do we cast them aside? Nitish Kumar has sacrificed everything for Bihar. He embodies energy, integrity, and commitment.”
The BJP MP further stated that the forthcoming Bihar Assembly elections, conducted in two phases, will once again showcase the people’s support for the NDA.
“Those who supported the RJD until recently are now opposing them. The public will rise above caste politics and cast their votes for the NDA. I am confident that Bihar will once again establish a double-engine government under the leadership of PM Modi and Nitish Kumar,” he stated.
