Tejashwi attacks Bihar CM says, ‘People hate energy less, conservative Nitish Kumar’

TejashwiPATNA: As Bihar heads to the first phase of polling on October 28, Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader Tejashwi Yadav on Sunday (October 25, 2020) alleged that the overwhelming crowds at his rallies reflect the mindest of the people who are not just angry with Chief Minister but hate “energyless, conservative and narrow-minded” Nitish Kumar.
“The crowd at our rallies show that people are not just angry with Nitish Kumar but they hate him now, this is the level of their angst,”he said. Further, Yadav reiterated that people are contesting Bihar Elections on the issue of unemployment and have kept caste, creed, class and religion aside.
He alleged that Nitish Kumar has become energy less, conservative and narrow-minded. “It seems that he has become energy less from the kind of boring, meaningless speeches and things he is doing. Nitish Kumar is tired now and he is no longer able to manage Bihar,” he said.Tejashwi Yadav has been constantly attacking the Chief Minister for being “physically and mentally tired”.

The RJD leader’s jibe on social media came a day after Nitish Kumar attacked Tejashwi Yadav and his father – Lalu Prasad Yadav at a rally in Begusarai as he said: “Ask your father or mother if they (Mr Yadav’s parents) made any schools or colleges when they had the chance… or kept on making ill-gotten profits”.

This morning, Tejashwi Yadav retaliated saying: “Respected Nitish ji is tired. The public is fed up of his stale, boring and age-old speeches.””Nitish Kumar ji, who is tired, is running away from realities and rationalizes. After ruining the future of the crores of youth in Bihar, he is now turning the pages of past,” he wrote in a tweet in Hindi.
On Saturday, RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav released the party`s manifesto for Bihar assembly election 2020 that promise to provide 10 lakh government jobs for youths, higher Minimum Selling Price (MSP) rates for farmers, better health care facilities in the state.

The RJD manifesto also promises to develop ‘smart village’ concept. “This is not a manifesto; this is a resolution and this will become a reality. I assure you that I will sign papers to ensure jobs to 10 lakh people on the very first day of the cabinet meeting. Last week, the Bihar Chief Minister, who is seeking a fourth term, reacted angrily to slogans of “Lalu Yadav Zindabad” at his rally.
“What are you saying? What are you saying?”  a furious Nitish Kumar shouted in the middle of his pitch for Chandrika Rai, a long-time RJD leader and Lalu Yadav aide who crossed over to the ruling Janata Dal United recently.
Tejashwi Yadav, meanwhile has been using social media, to draw attention to the huge crowds attending his rallies. Last night, he posted a video, saying: “It’s our resolve that those who are staying away from their homes – feeling stifled- we’ll get them new opportunities in Bihar so that they can live happier lives.”
