NEW DELHI: Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge on Thursday urged the people of Bihar to use their vote as a tool for change, calling it a golden opportunity to teach a lesson to “opportunistic rulers” who, he said, have betrayed the state for the past two decades.
In a post on the social media platform ‘X’, Mallikarjun Kharge said, “Voting for the first phase of the assembly elections has begun in Bihar, the birthplace of democracy. I appeal to every voter in Bihar to exercise their constitutional right in large numbers and give the state a new direction of change after 20 years."
He emphasised the need to build a Bihar where the youth have secure futures and are free from the burdens of unemployment and migration.
