Tejashwi Yadav, former deputy minister of Bihar, has launched a sharp critique against the NDA government. He claims they have turned Bihar into a hub of unemployment and migration. His statements come just as state assembly elections approach.
In a post on social media platform X, Yadav detailed his accusations. He pointed directly to the long tenure of the Nitish-Modi administration. Despite being in power for two decades, he says development has stalled.
The RJD leader did not rely on mere opinion. He cited reports from NITI Aayog to back his claims. These government documents, he stated, consistently highlight Bihar’s poor economic performance.
Yadav made a startling comparison about the state’s financial health. Bihar’s per capita income remains lower than some of the world’s poorest nations. He specifically named Uganda and Rwanda.
He posed direct questions to Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and PM Narendra Modi. Why has Bihar become the main hub for unemployment? This query challenges the government’s record.
Another critical question involved migration patterns. Yadav asked how much migration has occurred over the past twenty years. He also questioned why it is increasing at an unprecedented rate.
The lack of industrial development was another major point. He questioned the absence of sector-specific clusters in the state. This highlights a perceived failure in economic planning.
Yadav also inquired about industrial closures. He asked how many mills, industries, and factories have shut down during this period. This suggests a trend of de-industrialization.
Transparency in government exams and recruitment was also challenged. He raised concerns over the processes for the past two decades. This adds an allegation of systemic failure.
Earlier, Yadav took a jab at the NDA-led government. He suggested PM Modi is trying to win Bihar by setting up factories in Gujarat. This was a pointed political remark.
On Sunday, he continued his criticism while speaking to reporters. He stated that crime and corruption have increased in the state. This paints a picture of overall decline.
He urged people to examine the condition of essential services. Education, irrigation, and healthcare are all suffering. Bihar ranks at the bottom in many development indicators.
The state is also last in terms of farmers’ income. There is a notable absence of industry and business. This creates a bleak economic landscape for residents.
The upcoming elections are set for later this year. Although expected in October or November, no official date has been announced by the ECI. The political battle is clearly heating up.
