Speaking to reporters at an election rally in Madhubani, the Jan Suraaj founder claimed that the voters are moving beyond fear-driven choices between Nitish Kumar-BJP and Lalu Yadav-RJD, offering a leaderless, caste-neutral alternative focused on Bihar's youth.
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".
"No one in NDA is saying anything except abusing Lalu Yadav and Tejashwi Yadav. This time, people of Bihar are impatient for the change," Tejashwi said.
Earlier in the day, Union Home Minister Amit Shah urged the Bihar voters to elect a government committed to development and law and order, warning against the return of "jungle raj" if the RJD-led Mahagathbandhan comes to power.
Speaking to reporters, BJP leader Vivek Thakur said, "He (Tejashwi Yadav) was given a chance, but Nitish Kumar had to leave his alliance because corruption had reached its peak. One thing is well-known: Nitish Kumar stands firmly against corruption."
The RJD supremo alleged that the "uncrowned king of lies and the leader of empty promises" had claimed that 12,000 out of the country's total 13,198 trains would operate for Bihar during Chhath. The RJD leader termed the promise a blatant deception.
Union Minister and BJP National President JP Nadda on Thursday slammed the RJD over the "Jungle Raj" and "anarchy" during their 15-year tenure under Lalu Prasad Yadav ahead of the Bihar assembly polls on November 6 and November 11.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday targeted the Mahagathbandhan, saying the people of Bihar call it 'Lathbandhan' and that self-interest "is paramount" for these oppositon parties, who "don't care about the youth of Bihar".
Addressing the press conference in Patna, the JD(U) chief Spokesperson accused the Mahagathbandhan alliance of corruption in seat sharing, stating that there are 243 Assembly seats and the opposition alliance has fielded a total of 255 candidates.
The Mahagathbandhan (Grand alliance) in Bihar is fully "united" and "contesting the elections with strength" after the negotiations over the allocation of seat-sharing went down the line with a few days left for the polling for 243 constituencies on November 6 and November 11.
