Patna: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday recalled the contribution of Jan Nayak Karpoori Thakur in nation building and pledged to fulfill the aspirations of Bihar’s 14 crore population and claimed that his dream is the dream of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA).
Addressing the huge gathering, PM Modi said, “Today is a very important day in my life. Before coming here, I had gone to Karpuri village, where I got the opportunity to pay homage and salute to Bharat Ratna Jannayak Karpuri Thakur ji.”
He appealed to the crowd to continue taking advantage of the GST savings festival and extended best wishes for the great festival of Chhathi Maiya.
“The atmosphere in Samastipur, the mood in Mithila shows that Bihar will move forward with new momentum once the NDA government returns,” he told the crowd.
PM Modi also mocked ‘Constitution saviors’ and launched a scathing attack on RJD and Congress, reminding people of ‘Jungle Raj’ which created an atmosphere of fear and took the state back to the era.
He said that both RJD and Congress are embroiled in scams and some of their prominent leaders are also out on bail. He also mocked the opposition’s ‘vote theft’ rhetoric.
He said, “Inspired by Jananayak Karpoori Thakur, we are converting good governance into prosperity, but on the other hand, what are the people of RJD and Congress doing and saying? You know this better than me; I do not need to remind you. These are the people who are on bail in scams worth thousands of crores. And the people who are on bail are on bail in theft cases.”
He also accused the Grand Alliance of insulting the legacy of Karpoori Thakur and claimed that they were trying to steal the title of ‘Jananayak’.
PM Modi expressed hope that under the leadership of Nitish Kumar, the NDA will break all previous records, and the people of Bihar will bless the alliance with the “biggest mandate ever”.
