Modi's Rally Blitz: Charting Bihar's Political Course

Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched an extensive campaign in Bihar, supporting the NDA led by Chief Minister Nitish Kumar to break electoral records. In strongly worded rallies, Modi critiqued the opposition, highlighted NDA's achievements, and encouraged young voters to support good governance in the forthcoming assembly elections.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched a spirited campaign in Bihar on Friday, signaling the NDA's intent to surpass past electoral performances under Chief Minister Nitish Kumar's leadership. He urged voters to dismiss the RJD-Congress alliance, criticizing its leaders as those "out on bail" and emphasized NDA's united front amidst a divided opposition.

Addressing rallies in Samastipur and Begusarai, Modi contrasted the NDA's cohesiveness with the fractured INDIA bloc, citing the coalition's dedication to development. He praised JD(U) leader Kumar's leadership, rebutting opposition claims of BJP plans to replace him. Modi's visit to Karpuri Gram honored socialist leader Karpoori Thakur, further galvanizing his outreach.

Modi's appeal extended to young voters, invoking parental decisions in 2005 to end RJD-Congress's "jungle raj." He highlighted NDA's governance, central assistance increases, and steps against insurgency. He alleged opposition arrogance and ineffectiveness while championing his government's contributions to Bihar's progress and promising an insurgency-free future.
