PM Modi Slams RJD's 'Jungle Raj' in Bihar: "They Want Children to Become Extortionists, Not Doctors"

The Rashtriya Janata Dal is poisoning the children's minds, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has declared at a rally in Bihar, launching a scathing critique of the Tejashwi Yadav-led party with 'jungle raj' accusations. He alleged this morning that the RJD wants children to become extortionists, contrasting this with the NDA's commitment to working for a better future.

"What RJD wants to do for the children of Bihar is clearly visible in their election campaign. Listen to the songs and slogans of the 'jungle raj' people. You'll be shocked. On RJD's stages, innocent children are being made to say that they want to become rangdar (extortionists). Should a child of Bihar become a rangdar or a doctor?" PM Modi asked in his comprehensive attack against the RJD.

He was referencing a disturbing incident in Samastipur where a minor was recorded claiming from an RJD rally stage that they would be able to walk around with country-made guns, or kattas, if the RJD forms the government in Bihar.

"Jungle Raj means katta, krurta (cruelty), katuta (social resentment), kushasan (misgovernance), and corruption," PM Modi emphasized at the Sitamarhi rally. "What kind of people are they? They are filled with immorality and want a reign of misrule."

"Nahi chahiye katta sarkar, fir ek bar NDA sarkar (we don't want a government that promotes violence, we want the NDA government back)," the crowd repeated after the PM, with pro-NDA slogans filling the air.

Bihar's children now need to dream of startups and not "hands up" leaders, the prime minister asserted.

"In Bihar, there was a trend of carrying katta and telling people to 'hands up'. But I say, in Bihar, there is no place for that anymore. Bihar needs children who dream of startups, not 'hands up' leaders. We are giving our children books, computers, and laptops, but the RJD wants Bihar's youth to carry katta and dunali," stated the prime minister.

Such people want their own children to become ministers but want other children to become rangdar, he further added.

But after the Phase 1 voting, the jungle raj leaders have received a "65-volt shock," PM Modi observed, highlighting the record turnout on Thursday.

"The talk is that Bihar's youth have chosen development. They have chosen the NDA...Bihar will become developed. This election is for building a developed Bihar. This election will determine what the future holds for the children of Bihar and the future of your sons and daughters," the prime minister added.

The NDA government under Nitish Kumar's leadership rebuilt public faith, and investors are now eager to come to Bihar, he said, describing this as one of his "Modi ki guarantee."

The second phase of voting is scheduled next Tuesday in the remaining 122 seats. The votes will be counted on Friday.
