Patna, October 15 (IANS) As the nomination process for Bihar Assembly elections 2025 intensified, many prominent leaders filed their nominations on Wednesday.
Among them, RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav filed his nomination from Raghopur assembly constituency, his third consecutive bid from the seat.
The nomination event turned into a show of strength for the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), with thousands of party supporters taking part in a massive road show.
RJD supremo Lalu Prasad Yadav, Rabri Devi, Misa Bharti and Sanjay Yadav were with Tejashwi during the filing.
Lalu’s elder son Tej Pratap Yadav was also going to file his nomination from Mahua on Janashakti Janata Dal ticket, but he postponed it till October 16.
Apart from Tejashwi Yadav, Vijay Kumar Sinha also filed nomination from Lakhisarai.
Speaking to reporters before filing his nomination, Tejashwi Yadav said, “The people of Raghopur have trusted me twice. This is the third time I have filed my nomination, and I am confident that the people will once again bless me. The people of Bihar are tired of crime, corruption and unemployment. This time, change is certain – Bihar will get a Grand Alliance government.”
Launching a scathing attack on the ruling JD-U, Tejashwi said, “JD-U is now being run by Lalan Singh, Sanjay Jha and Vijay Chaudhary.
All three have been sold to BJP. Nitish Kumar’s Janata Dal United is no more.”
Later, in a detailed Facebook post, Tejashwi shared photos from the nomination rally and called it a historic moment for Bihar.
Outlining his vision for the state, he said the nomination marks a new chapter of development and a collective pledge for change.
Tejashwi Yadav promised government job for every family, eradication of unemployment, Rs 2,500 monthly assistance to every woman, 200 units of free electricity for every household, LPG cylinder worth Rs 500, social security and disability pension, industrialization and better education and healthcare, schemes like MAA and Beti and freedom from crime and injustice.
He wrote, “This nomination is not just for Tejashwi, but for the change in entire Bihar. Every person from Bihar has filed nomination to become the change maker of Bihar. Together we will take Bihar forward.”
The RJD leader ended his post with a direct appeal to voters:
“Not even a month is left. I promise to respect every drop of your sweat. With the signing of the oath, the pain and injustice of the last 20 years will end. The echo of change is strong – Biharis are coming to take their rights.”
