Meanwhile, Tejashwi Yadav launched an attack on PM Modi ahead of his Bhagalpur visit. “He and his ministers visit Bihar only during elections. What has he done for the state? If he couldn’t grant Patna University central university status in 11 years, what more can we expect from him?” Tejashwi questioned.Reacting to Lalu Prasad’s poll promises, JD(U) spokesperson Neeraj Kumar dismissed them, calling Lalu a “laughingstock” for claiming he would provide jobs to people.“Yes, the kidnapping industry will certainly flourish again if RJD comes to power,” he remarked, adding that voters would not be swayed by “hollow promises.”The BJP, a key NDA ally, also criticized Lalu’s statement, alleging that his sole focus is making his son Tejashwi the Chief Minister.“He has no concern for Bihar’s development. The 15-year rule of Lalu-Rabri is an open secret,” BJP leader Prabhakar Mishra said.NDA leaders countered RJD’s employment claims by asserting that out of 10 lakh government jobs, 9 lakh have already been provided. Similarly, they claimed that the NDA government has created 21 lakh job opportunities in Bihar, exceeding the initial target of 12 lakh.During his visit to Bhagalpur, PM Modi will release the 19th installment of the PM Kisan Yojana and inaugurate several development projects across Bihar. Over 9.7 crore farmers will receive direct financial benefits amounting to more than ₹21,500 crore under the scheme.With election season approaching, both RJD and NDA have intensified their campaigns, setting the stage for a heated political battle in Bihar.
