Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader and former Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav on March 5 hit back at the BJP’s ‘Modi ka parivar’ (Modi’s family) campaign, which came about as a response to the RJD chief, his father Lalu Prasad’s recent remarks on Prime Minister Narendra Modi having “no family”.
Mr. Yadav also said the Indian National Developmental, Inclusive Alliance (INDIA) bloc’s seat sharing would be completed in well ahead of that of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) in Bihar, and that the INDIA bloc would deliver surprising results in the forthcoming Lok Sabha election.
“Assi partishat log garibi se karte hai hahakar, sau crore berozgar, ek sau bees crore mehangai se lachar, dukhi sab parivar, phir bhi kahte hai unka parivar [80% people are suffering from poverty, 100 crore people are unemployed, 120 crore people are helpless due to inflation, all the families are unhappy, yet he (Mr. Modi) calls them his family),” Mr. Tejashwi Yadav told media persons in Patna.
