Bihar Election: Road Construction Minister Nitin Nabin said that Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has been the face of Bihar for 20 years. He and Prime Minister Narendra Modi have taken forward the politics of development in the state. In an interview to PTI, BJP leader and minister Nabeen also questioned the popularity of Grand Alliance’s chief ministerial candidate Tejashwi Yadav. Claimed that the RJD leader is unpopular within his own party and family. He also took a dig at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and asked why he has not been able to hold any rally in Bihar till now. He quipped that his rallies benefit the ruling NDA. When asked whether Nitish Kumar would be the Chief Minister if NDA comes to power. Nabeen said that Nitish ji has been the face of Bihar and its people for the last 20 years.
Took a dig at Rahul Gandhi
Naveen raised questions on the Grand Alliance declaring Tejashwi Yadav as the chief ministerial face. He said that the self-proclaimed faces are unpopular even in their own party and family. How popular will they be among the people? If self-declaration is everything, then he can also be declared the face of the post of Prime Minister. On Friday, in a rally in Samastipur, Bihar, Modi had said that under the leadership of Nitish, NDA will break its previous records in these elections. Naveen stressed that the NDA will return to power and the election results will be better than 2020. Taking a dig at Gandhi, the BJP leader said that those who had brought allegations of vote theft have now fled. The voter list was published on September 30, since then he (Rahul Gandhi) has not come to Bihar even once. He talked about ‘nuclear bomb’. Where is the bomb?” Nabin asked. The Bihar minister quipped that whenever Gandhi comes to campaign, BJP and NDA benefit.
NDA does politics of development
Nabin said that he went away after scoring an own goal. We want him to come. Because whenever he comes, BJP benefits, NDA benefits. We are waiting for Rahulji’s arrival soon. On Prime Minister Modi’s comment that if the RJD-led grand alliance comes to power, ‘Jungle Raj’ will return in Bihar. In Bihar it was called ‘Jungle Raj’ because the crime was supported by the government. At that time criminals used to get protection in the corridors of power. He said that people have not forgotten what was the era of Shahabuddin. His son got the ticket again. So somewhere, what the Prime Minister is saying is visible. RJD has fielded Osama Shahab, son of former party MP Mohammad Shahabuddin, from Raghunathpur assembly seat of Siwan. Nabeen said that NDA has brought politics of development in Bihar. He said that Nitish Kumar and Narendra Modi have got so much support from the people only because of development. Nitish Kumar and Narendra Modi have not done politics on the basis of caste.
