He accused Nitish Kumar and the BJP of having identical ideologies and working styles, claiming there is no difference between their policies, which is not in the best interests of Bihar.
Rajesh Kumar Levels Serious Allegations Against Nitish Kumar
Congress President Rajesh Kumar stated that Nitish Kumar gained power in the name of social justice but is now perpetrating injustice. He also questioned Nitish Kumar's support for the BJP on the Wakf Bill, arguing that the BJP's approach to the bill is disillusioning people with the NDA.
Rajesh Kumar also questioned Prime Minister Narendra Modi's recent visit to Bihar. He asked about the fate of the development packages worth crores of rupees previously announced for Bihar. He further highlighted the deteriorating law and order situation and rising crime rates in Bihar, questioning the NDA government's inaction.
