Addressing the gathering, Paswan spoke emotionally about the connection people had with his father, the late Ram Vilas Paswan, and how people supported him when he was the only MP of his party.
"...This is not just a crowd, we've to understand their enthusiasm. The people are coming today with full enthusiasm, without caring for themselves, with the thought that the relationship they had with my father, they want to establish the same relationship with me too. This strength increases my energy, increases my courage... I got this love from them even in those three years when Chirag Paswan was nothing; he was the only MP of his party; even then, these people supported me ..." Chirag Paswan said.
