In crime-infested Bihar, double engine has become trouble engine: Tejashwi

PATNA: RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav on Saturday charged the ruling BJP-JD(U) alliance in Bihar has become a "trouble engine" instead of the "double engine" that had promised to propel the state towards progress. The leader of the opposition cited recent incidents of crime to buttress the point that Chief Minister Nitish Kumar had become tired and helpless af ter being in power for a decade and a half, while the BJP was unable to make a difference despite having more MLAs and two Deputy CMs for the first time in the state's histor y. Yadav made the remarks against Kumar in the backdrop of his heated exchange with journalists here on Friday when they had sought to nettle him on the inability of the police to crack a high profile murder case.
