BJP MP Nishikant Dubey on Saturday claimed that an "even bigger wave" is visible in Bihar this time, citing growing support for the NDA due to development, improved infrastructure, makhana farming, and better law and order.
Speaking to the reporters, Nishikant Dubey said, "In Bihar, we won 210 seats in 2010, and this time an even bigger wave is visible here. The reason behind this is development... Here, makhana farming has become the biggest means of livelihood for people... The benefits farmers are receiving are unimaginable... Wide roads are visible all around... The law-and-order situation here is good... When our government comes into power, NRC will be imposed and all Bangladeshis will be ousted..." 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. Addressing an election rally in Khagaria, Shah said that it was the NDA government that worked to eradicate Naxalism from Bihar. "We have worked to free Bihar from Naxalism. This election is the one that will decide whether to bring back jungle raj to Bihar or the rule of development. Do you want jungle raj? If the Lalu's Rabri government comes to power, jungle raj will also come with it. If the NDA government is formed, a developed Bihar will be recognised throughout India. Use your vote wisely," Shah said during a rally. The voting for the 243-seat Bihar Assembly will be held in two phases on November 6 and 11, while the results will be declared on November 14. The main contest is between the ruling Chief Minister Nitish Kumar-led NDA and the RJD-led opposition alliance 'Mahagathbandhan.' NDA includes the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Janata Dal (United), Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas), Hindustani Awam Morcha (Secular) and Rashtriya Lok Morcha (RLM). Mahagathbandhan, led by Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD, includes Congress, the Communist Party of India (Marxist-Leninist) (CPI-ML) led by Deepankar Bhattacharya, the Communist Party of India (CPI), the Communist Party of India (Marxist) (CPM), and Mukesh Sahani's Vikasheel Insaan Party (VIP). Additionally, Prashant Kishor's Jan Suraaj is also debuting in the state. (ANI)
