After handing over appointment letters to 25 selected candidates during the employment fair organized in Patna, Union Minister Lalan Singh made a scathing attack on the opposition while talking to the media. On this occasion, he especially targeted Leader of Opposition Tejashwi Yadav.
Taunt on Tejashwi:
Lalan Singh said,
“Tejashwi Yadav has been dreaming of becoming the Chief Minister for the last 20 years and will continue to do the same for the next 5 years. It is not wrong to dream, but his dream will never be fulfilled.”
He further said that every person has the right to dream, but it is not necessary that every dream becomes reality.
What did Lalan Singh say on Pragati Yatra?
Regarding Nitish Kumar’s Pragati Yatra, Lalan Singh said that by inspecting the development works, the Chief Minister is ensuring how to take Bihar forward.
“This visit is not limited to just reviewing the work done so far, but is an attempt to understand what possibilities can be realized in the future. This ensures progress in the state.”
Tejashwi’s counter attack on Nitish
Bihar’s Leader of Opposition Tejashwi Yadav had a few days ago termed Chief Minister Nitish Kumar’s Pragati Yatra as “goodbye yatra”. During the worker dialogue program organized in Bhagalpur, he had said:
“There is a dire need for change in Bihar. The change in power will create new employment opportunities and provide the public with a crime-free, developing society.”
Tejashwi also alleged that,
“NDA has been hacked by five people. In such a situation, how will decisions be taken in the public interest?”
Power struggle continues in Bihar
The power struggle in Bihar between Nitish Kumar’s Pragati Yatra and Tejashwi Yadav’s sharp statements has heated up the political atmosphere.
- While Lalan Singh rejected Tejashwi’s dreams and called them far from reality,
- Tejashwi Yadav termed the schemes of Nitish government as wasteful and insensitive towards the people.
Before the upcoming elections, these statements have increased the stir in the politics of Bihar. Now it remains to be seen what stance the public takes on this dispute.
