"People will remove dictatorial government; INDIA will assume power on June 4," says RJD's Tejashwi Yadav

Rashtriya Janata Dal's leader Tejashwi Yadav on Wednesday took a jibe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi and claimed that the people of the country will remove the dictatorial government and the INDIA alliance will form government on June 4.

Rashtriya Janata Dal's leader Tejashwi Yadav on Wednesday took a jibe at Prime Minister Narendra Modi and claimed that the people of the country will remove the dictatorial government and the INDIA alliance will form the government on June 4. Speaking with the reporters, Tejashwi Yadav said, "The PM knows that it's certain that he will have to leave (as the PM) this time. Not only in Bihar but across the country, people are going to remove this dictatorial govt. And in the third phase of elections, we are in a very good position. We are fully confident that on June 4, the government of INDIA will come to power."

Responding to a question of the PM attacking Lalu Yadav and RJD, Tejashwi Yadav said, "The PM is rattled and scared, I have already said that he is 'Pirzada', he can say anything. He keeps lying... I want to say to him, along with 'Dharma', Dharmshastra teaches us about 'Karma' as well, he should talk about what he has done in the last 10 years, for Bihar." Yadav added, "Karpoori Thakur (former Bihar CM) has already given reservations to all backwards castes from all religions, but those who want to do away with the Constitution and hence the democracy, ask them why didn't they put the things in schedule 9 when we increased the reservation."

On the Prime Minister's upcoming roadshow in Patna on May 7, Tejashwi Yadav said, "When he (Narendra Modi) comes for the roadshow, ask him why Patna University has still not got the recognition as a Central University." Tejashwi Yadav's remarks come after Prime Minister Narendra Modi attacked the RJD supremo and the INDIA bloc, alleging that it wants to give the whole reservation to the Muslim community, while addressing a public meeting in Madhya Pradesh on May 7.

"Today, a senior leader of the INDI alliance ...a leader who is in jail for eating cattle fodder...he was convicted by the court, was in prison, is out on bail only on health grounds...Today, he was proudly saying that Muslims should get reservation, and not just that, he wants the whole reservation to be given to them," PM Modi had said in a public meeting in Dhar, Madhya Pradesh on Tuesday. "This means, they want to snatch the whole reservation of SC, ST and OBC and give it to Muslims...I had only alleged that the Opposition is planning to snatch a part of the reservation, but their conspiracy is even bigger, they want to take away the whole reservation," Modi had added.

Notably, polling in Bihar, which sends 40 members to the Lok Sabha, is being held across all seven phases. The counting of votes for all phases is scheduled for June 4. The voting on five seats in Bihar--Jhanjharpur, Supaul, Araria, Madhepura, and Khagaria was conducted in the third phase of the Lok Sabha election on May 7.

In the 2019 elections, the BJP-led NDA nearly mopped up the poll sweepstakes in the state, winning 39 of the 40 seats. (ANI)
