In Patna’s political corridors, tension simmered as RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav unleashed a blistering critique of the NDA’s 21-year tenure in Bihar. Labeling the state as India’s poverty and unemployment capital, Yadav questioned Chief Minister Nitish Kumar’s fitness to lead amid escalating crimes.
During a media briefing, the young opposition firebrand laid out damning statistics: Bihar tops charts for poverty, joblessness, out-migration, and industrial failure. Per capita income is rock-bottom, while schools, hospitals, and sports facilities crumble. ‘People gave NDA a 21-year chance, yet we’re the worst off,’ he lamented.
Corruption has drained the coffers, Yadav charged, predicting salary delays for state workers due to budget shortfalls. Crime waves—killings, lootings, assaults—go unchecked, with no government response. ‘Our CM is oblivious; Bihar deserves better,’ he quipped.
Yadav accused the regime of dodging questions through distractions and silence. ‘We demand steps to fix law and order, but they have none.’ This outburst follows assembly debates where Yadav repeatedly targeted the CM’s health and governance lapses.
With public discontent rising, Tejashwi’s offensive could reshape Bihar’s political landscape, forcing the NDA to confront long-standing failures head-on.
