"People who ruined Bihar can't be called Nayak": Prashant Kishor's dig at Tejashwi Yadav

Sitamarhi (Bihar) [India], October 26 (ANI): With less than two weeks to go for the Bihar assembly polls, Founder of Jan Suraaj, Prashant Kishor, on Sunday launched a veiled attack on RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav and wondered "if the people who have ruined Bihar are called "heroes", "then who is the villain"?
"The campaign will start after Chhath Puja. We are meeting people and our colleagues... We will start the campaign from the 28th after Chhath," Kishor told reporters here during campaigning for the assembly polls on November 6 and November 11, with counting of votes on November 14.
Answering a question on Mahagathbandhan Chief Ministerial face Tejashwi Yadav, who is also the leader of Opposition in the Bihar Legislative Assembly, being called "Nayak of Bihar" on social media by his supporters, Kishore replied, "If the people who have ruined Bihar are heroes, then who is the villain? The people of Bihar know which people have brought Bihar to this state..."
"They can't be Nayak of Bihar, " he asserted. Jan Suraaj, seen as the third alternative for voters in the assembly poll, is contesting on all 243 seats.
Meanwhile, Tejashwi Yadav on Sunday assured voters that his alliance would deliver on every promise made. He took a sharp dig at the NDA, saying that "no one in NDA is saying anything except abusing Lalu Yadav and Tejashwi Yadav".
He further hit it out at the NDA over its unfulfilled commitments, saying, "What happened to the two crore jobs, Startup India, Make in India? We believe in doing the work. We are telling everything to the people about what we will do in the next 5 years."
Tejashwi also took aim at the NDA's campaign strategy, saying that instead of addressing key issues, the alliance was focused on personal attacks.
"No one in NDA is saying anything except abusing Lalu Yadav and Tejashwi Yadav. This time, people of Bihar are impatient for the change," he said.
Mahagathbandhan earlier declared Tejashwi Yadav as the CM face for the Bihar assembly polls, while also naming Mukesh Sahani of Vikassheel Insaan Party (VIP) as Deputy CM candidate. (ANI)
