Overview
- Wrapping up a five-day tour on September 20, Tejashwi Yadav covered 28 assembly segments across 11 districts with a focus on employment, migration, corruption and law and order.
- He promised jobs for degree-holders and framed the campaign around factories, education, health and irrigation, positioning himself as the INDIA bloc’s face in Bihar.
- Responding to Amit Shah’s remark that he would not dare contest in future, Yadav called the warning a hollow threat and vowed to unseat the Nitish Kumar-led NDA.
- The RJD leader accused the NDA of looting Bihar and said there is “abundant evidence” the Election Commission sided with the BJP, adding that seat-sharing within the Mahagathbandhan is nearly settled.
- BJP leaders circulated a viral clip alleging abusive slogans about the PM’s late mother at an RJD rally; PTI said it could not verify the video and RJD figures called it doctored, as the row deepened ahead of state polls.
