NEW DELHI: Mahagathbandhan's election manifesto has come under the sharp attack of BJP, as the latter termed it “not a manifesto, but a bundle of lies.” BJP leaders accused the Opposition-led alliance of misleading the people of Bihar with hollow promises and said that this shows their intention to return to “jungle raj.”
Speaking to IANS, senior BJP leader Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi said, “Promises are being made, but the intention is of jungle raj. The people of Bihar still remember the pain and wounds caused by the previous era of jungle raj. Everyone knows these promises are a hoax. If they think they can gain votes through such false assurances, they are mistaken. The Mahagathbandhan has already collapsed. No matter how many manifestos they release, every time it will only shock them.”
BJP MP Sanjay Jaiswal also dismissed the Mahagathbandhan’s promises, saying, “They will never come to power. How can someone promise government jobs for every household? Tejashwi Yadav committed a big fraud against the people of Bihar. This manifesto is not for the people — it’s the Mahagathbandhan’s personal agenda. The people will not fall for such deceit.”
