"Has revealed his intentions...": Acharya Pramod Krishnam slams Tejashwi Yadav ahead of Bihar polls

Hapur (Uttar Pradesh) [India], October 27 (ANI): Former Congress leader Acharya Pramod Krishnam said that Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) chief Tejashwi Yadav has revealed his intentions, saying that Yadav will implement Sharia law in Bihar if his government is formed.
"Tejashwi Yadav has forgotten that the people elect the CM. The party only elects a CM candidate... He has revealed his intentions. If Tejashwi Yadav becomes the CM, Waqf will not be a matter of law because he will implement Sharia law in Bihar," Krishnam said.
Meanwhile, Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader and Mahagathbandhan's Chief Ministerial candidate Tejashwi Yadav on Sunday took a dig at Prime Minister Narendra Modi ahead of his visit to poll-bound Bihar, alleging that PM Modi is "coming to cheat Bihar."
Speaking to the media in Patna, Tejashwi said that mere visits and rallies by the Prime Minister would not change the reality on the ground.
"Look, everyone has to come for the elections. What difference will merely his coming here make? Everyone knows that he (Pm Modi) is coming to cheat Bihar," Tejashwi Yadav said
The former Deputy Chief Minister questioned the Prime Minister's development record and demanded transparency in central allocations to Bihar.
"All we want to know from the Prime Minister is what you gave to Gujarat in 11 years and what you gave to Bihar -- just show the accounts, that's all we need. Tell us how much was given to Gujarat in the past years and how much to Bihar," he added.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to visit Bihar on October 30 as part of the BJP's campaign for Assembly elections to attend two programmes in Muzaffarpur and Chhapra, BJP state president Dilip Jaiswal confirmed on Saturday.
The first phase of the Bihar Assembly polls will take place on November 6, and the second phase will happen on November 11. The vote count will take place on November 14.
The upcoming electoral contest will be between the NDA, led by the BJP, and the Janata Dal (United) (JD(U)), as well as the INDIA bloc, led by Tejashwi Yadav of the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD). The INDIA bloc looks to unseat Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, who leads the NDA. (ANI)
