New Delhi [India], September 8 (ANI): Hitting back at Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader Tejashwi Yadav's claims of the NDA government turning Bihar into a hub of unemployment, migration and poverty, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Sanjay Jaiswal on Monday alleged that industrialists were scared of being ruined if the RJD came to power.
"When the RJD government was in power, Bihar's per capita income was only Rs 6,000 per person, and today it has become Rs 68,000.... Today, every house has been living a normal life and the state is developing... In Bihar today, kidnappings are happening everyday and industrialists are scared that if the party comes to power again, they will be finished...." Jaiswal told ANI.
This comes after Bihar's ex-deputy Chief Minister claimed that the NDA government has made Bihar a hub of unemployment, migration and poverty.
In a post on X, Tejashwi Yadav said that "Despite the Nitish-Modi government being in power in Bihar for 20 years and at the center for 11 years, the NDA government has made Bihar the main hub of unemployment migration, and poverty. This is not my claim but what the Government of India's NITI Aayog reports have been saying year after year."
He further added that Bihar's per capita income over the past 20 years continues to remain lower than that of the world's poorest African countries, Uganda and Rwanda.
The son of Rashtriya Janta Dal president Lalu Prasad Yadav, through his post, asked questions to Nitish Kumar and PM Narendra Modi, saying, "Why is Bihar the main hub of unemployment? And how much migration has taken place from Bihar in the past 20 years, and why is migration increasing at an unprecedented rate in Bihar?"
Furthermore, Yadav asked why the government has not established sector-specific clusters in the state for 20 years. He also asked how many mills, total industries and factories have shut down in the state.
Additionally, he also questioned the government over the transparency of exam and recruitment processes for the past 20 years. (ANI)
