PM Modi Alleges RJD Threatened Congress for CM Pick; Rahul Gandhi Critiques PM on Operation Sindoor
Prime Minister Modi held rallies in Bihar and told people not to bring back the 'jungle raj' of the past.
He claimed that the RJD party threatened the Congress with a gun to make them agree that Tejashwi Yadav would be the Chief Minister if their alliance won.
Modi also criticized the Congress for past actions, like the 1984 riots, and accused them of appeasing people who shouldn't be in India.
Meanwhile, Rahul Gandhi, a leader from the Congress party, spoke at his own rally.
He criticized Prime Minister Modi, saying he stopped a military operation called 'Operation Sindoor' because the US asked him to.
Gandhi contrasted this with India's past leader Indira Gandhi, who he said stood up to the US.
He also talked about a special plan for poor communities and said their alliance would include everyone.
Prime Minister Modi claimed the RJD forced the Congress to accept Tejashwi Yadav as the INDIA bloc's Chief Ministerial candidate using "jungle raj" tactics, including pointing a "katta" (unlicensed gun) at the Congress.
Modi alleged that the Congress was unwilling to accept Tejashwi Yadav but relented due to RJD's pressure, highlighting internal friction within the alliance.
Prime Minister Modi criticized the RJD and Congress as elements of "jungle raj" associated with corruption and appeasement, contrasting them with the NDA's focus on 'Viksit Bharat' and 'developed Bihar'.
Rahul Gandhi criticized Prime Minister Modi for allegedly stopping "Operation Sindoor" under pressure from the US, contrasting it with Indira Gandhi's firm stance against the US in 1971.
Rahul Gandhi also spoke about the Mahagathbandhan's "Special Manifesto" for Extremely Backward Classes and claimed the Bihar government was being controlled by officers taking orders from Delhi.
