On the launch of the second leg of the election campaign in Bihar, the PM raised the issues with religious touch to lure voters towards BJP JD(U) alliance.

He compared the rule of the opposition with that of jungle raj. Standing in the Bihar election rally, he did not fail to incorporate the emotional connection of Bihar with Sita through Mithila, in the favour of BJP. The PM played the Ram mandir and Ayodhya cards stating that those who used to pass taunts on the Ram Mandir issue are now inevitably forced to clap in applause.

In the campaign, he tried to draw attention towards the bridge building intiatives taken by the current governments at the union and the state levels specifically mentioning about the Kosi Mahasetu project. He also claimed that 11 lakh households now have access to clean water, due to efforts taken by JD(U) government. He showered praises on Nitish Kumar, whom he addressed as Bhavi Mukhyamantri.

In an attack directed at the Congress-RJD combine, he stated that the other parties like RJD had carried out financial irregularities under the guise of farm loans’ waiver. He also referred to the Pan and Makhaan grown in Darbhanga region in his campaign speech.

In an attempt to reach out to the people from the  lower castes, PM also paid tribute to Baba Chauharmal.

In the tension between the dalit dusadh community and the bhumihar, there are many folklore stories surrounding Chauharmal, who is worshipped among the people from the lower castes.

In the rally at Darbhanga, the PM also provided hints that the LJP led by Chirag Paswan is not a part of the BJP JD(U) combine. After the rally at Darbhanga, he is set for rallies in Muzaffarpur and Patna, today.
