PATNA: Union defence minister Rajnath Singh claimed RJD had tarnished Bihar's image globally and urged people not to allow the return of Lalu Prasad's " jungle raj ". Addressing an election rally in Darbhanga, Singh said Lalu's entire family is accused of corruption.
"An ex-CM (Lalu) spent years in jail. Isn't this a matter of shame for every Bihari," Rajnath asked. He questioned opposition's manifesto and said the promise of providing govt jobs to every household is "impractical and misleading".
Referring to RJD's Tejashwi Yadav 's threat of throwing Waqf (Amendment) Act into the dustbin, Rajnath said, "Opposition always lies... No one can repeal a law made in Parliament," he said.
Singh appealed to people to decide whether they wanted a "developed Bihar" or return of "jungle raj", adding, "No one can question the intentions of CM Nitish Kumar and PM Modi. The PM has enhanced India's stature and prestige on the global stage."
Addressing another election rally at Barh, in Patna district, he said, "Development was put on hold during RJD and Congress govts. If anyone can break this hold, it's NDA govt. We don't want jungle raj, we want development." Singh was to visit Chhapra, but his programme was cancelled due to inclement weather.
