“There’s a difference between what PM says and what he does” says Tejashwi Yadav

Former Bihar Deputy Chief Minister and Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader Tejashwi Yadav took a dig at Prime Minister Narendra Modi regarding his first rally in Bihar. He questioned whether the PM would speak against nepotism in his election campaign in the state.

Tejashwi Yadav, former Bihar Deputy Chief Minister and leader of Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), criticized Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his election campaign in Bihar, highlighting what he perceives as a contradiction between the PM’s words and actions.

Yadav questioned whether PM Modi, known for criticizing dynastic politics, would speak against nepotism during his campaign in Bihar. He pointed out that despite PM Modi’s rhetoric against dynastic politics, he is supporting a dynastic candidate from his alliance, suggesting a disparity between the PM’s words and deeds.

Accusing the BJP of misusing government agencies, Yadav alleged that leaders joining the BJP have cases against them closed by agencies like the Enforcement Directorate (ED) and the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), and are subsequently appointed as ministers.

Addressing Congress leader Pappu Yadav’s decision to contest from Purnea, a seat allocated to RJD, Yadav affirmed his support for his party’s candidate, Bima Bharti, in the constituency.

Pappu Yadav’s insistence on contesting from Purnia has strained the Grand Alliance in Bihar, with the RJD facing pressure to reconsider its decision regarding the seat allocation.

The Mahagathbandhan, comprising RJD, Congress, and Left parties, has announced its seat-sharing arrangement in Bihar, with RJD contesting 26 out of 40 Lok Sabha seats, including Purnia.

The upcoming Lok Sabha elections in Bihar will be conducted in seven phases starting from April 19, with the final phase scheduled for June 1. In the 2019 elections, the NDA secured 39 out of 40 seats, while the Mahagathbandhan managed to win only one seat.

The Lok Sabha Elections 2024 will be held in seven phases from April 19, with the counting of votes scheduled for June 4.
