Parivaar ka saath, parivaar ka vikas: PM’s jibe at RJD-Congress in Bihar
Prime Minister Narendra Modi said those hankering for power focus solely on promoting their own families. PM Modi appealed to the public to vote out those who brought ‘jungle raj’ to Bihar and looted the state in the upcoming elections. This is PM Modi’s fifth visit to Bihar in the past five months as the BJP-JD(U) combine aims to retain power in its head-on clash with the RJD-led Mahagathbandhan. The RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav has repeatedly raked up how relatives of several NDA leaders have been appointed to various commissions in Bihar. The Prime Minister said the Dalit and backwards communities were the biggest victims of this.
Addressing a rally in Bihar’s Siwan, where he dedicated development projects worth Rs 10,000 crore, PM Modi appealed to the public to vote out those who brought ‘jungle raj’ to Bihar and looted the state in the upcoming elections.

“We say ‘Sabka saath, sabka vikas’ but the RJD and Congress believe in ‘parivaar ka saath, parivaar ka vikas’. Congress’s licence raj responsible for poverty in India. While families of its leaders became rich, people remained poor,” the Prime Minister thundered.
The Prime Minister said the Dalit and backwards communities were the biggest victims of this.
PM Modi’s remarks were seemingly a bid to blunt RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav’s nepotism charge against the ruling alliance. Tejashwi has repeatedly raked up how relatives of several NDA leaders have been appointed to various commissions in Bihar.
FIFTH VISIT TO BIHAR IN 5 MONTHS
This is PM Modi’s fifth visit to Bihar in the past five months as the BJP-JD(U) combine aims to retain power in its head-on clash with the RJD-led Mahagathbandhan. Siwan and its nearby districts, such as Gopalganj and Chapra, are strongholds of the RJD.

Targeting the RJD on the recent controversy over alleged disrespect to BR Ambedkar’s portrait by Lalu Prasad Yadav, PM Modi asserted that the people of Bihar would never forgive those who insulted the architect of the Constitution.
“RJD insulted Babasaheb Ambedkar, people of Bihar will never forgive its leaders,” PM Modi said, as he attempted to woo the nearly 20% Dalit population.
RAKES UP MIGRATION CARD
Calling the RJD-Congress combine “anti-Bihar” and “anti-investment”, PM Modi said the parties looted so much that poverty became Bihar’s misfortune.
“Whenever they talk about development, people see locks hanging on shops, businesses, industries and trades… These people have been the nurturers of poor infrastructure, mafia raj, gunda raj, and corruption,” the Prime Minister thundered.
The fact that Bihar has the highest number of inter-state migrants was also raked up by PM Modi, who blamed the previous RJD governments for it.
“The Congress and RJD are responsible for poverty and the migration of labourers from Bihar. The ‘panja’ and ‘lantern’ together have hurt the pride of Bihar. Those who brought ‘jungle raj’ to Bihar are looking for an opportunity to repeat their old deeds somehow. You have to be very cautious for the bright future of your children,” he further said.
