Modi slams ‘alliance of dynasts’ in Bihar

-

samastipur — Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday lashed out at the Congress-RJD alliance in the Bihar Assembly elections and dubbed it an “alliance of dynasts” who were only concerned about their own families.

“The opposition leaders are reminded of the ‘poor’ only during polls while they remain focused on their families at other times. Here, you are watching the crown prince of jungle raj. The Congress is also limited to one family only,” he said while addressing a rally in Samastipur in Bihar, his second of the four rallies for the day.

“What have these familyorie­nted parties working only for themselves given you? If big bungalows are being built, whom are they built for? If palaces are built, whom are they for? If a large number of vehicles worth millions of rupees have arrived, who gets them?”

“Today, if every assessment, every survey is claiming NDA victory, there is a strong reason for it. Our mothers and sisters are again helping to form another NDA government in Bihar,” the prime minister added.

During his speech, Modi repeatedly differenti­ated between what he called ‘jungle raj’ and ‘developmen­t’. He cautioned the people of Bihar against going back to the days of being ‘bimar’. “Will you bring back those who made Bihar ill?” he asked the audience in Samastipur.

“They have nothing to do with your developmen­t, but with only their own developmen­t. This is their truth, this is their way, this is their training,” Modi said while hitting out at the Congress-Rashtriya Janata Dal-Left alliance. — IANS
