Conversation about jungle raj is natural, will go on for 100 years...: PM Modi slams RJD

PM Modi attacks RJD's 15-year rule as "jungle raj," urges youth to document past atrocities. Calls opposition alliance "Lathbandhan" ahead of Bihar polls.

"Conversation about jungle raj is natural, it will go on for 100 years. Bihar's people will never forget about it. - PM Narendra Modi"

New Delhi, October 23

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday slammed RJD over its 15-year rule in Bihar, saying that people will not forget "jungle raj" and the conversation about it will go on for 100 years.

Interacting with BJP workers from poll-bound Bihar through the 'Mera Booth Sabse Majboot' programme, PM Modi urged young people in Bihar to gather at every booth and ask elderly people in that area to recount past events.

"Conversation about jungle raj is natural, it will go on for 100 years. Bihar's people will never forget about it. This is the land of Chanakya. Bihar people will never forgive them. I would like to urge all young people of Bihar to gather at every booth and ask the elderly people in that area to come and tell everyone about past events. A program can be created to share their disturbing experiences with the new generation," he said.

PM Modi also targeted the Mahagathbandhan, saying the people of Bihar call it 'Lathbandhan' and that self-interest "is paramount" for these oppositon parties, who "don't care about the youth of Bihar".

Taking "jungle raj" jibes at RJD, PM Modi also alleged that elections in the past had been won "with the help of Maoist terror".

"Those who call themselves the 'Gathbandhan,' whom the people of Bihar call the 'Lathbandhan,' only know how to use the lathi and keep fighting. For the 'Lathbandhan,' their own self-interest is paramount. They don't care about the youth of Bihar. For decades, the youth of the country and Bihar suffered from Naxalism and Maoist terror. They even kept winning elections with the help of Maoist terror. Naxalism and Maoist terror played a huge role in the destruction of Bihar," he said.

The Prime Minister said that the NDA government has brought Bihar out of the darkness of jungle raj and into the new light of development.

"This Maoist terror did not allow schools, colleges, or hospitals to open, and instead destroyed the already built ones. They did not allow industries to enter... It is taking a lot of effort to bring Bihar out of this. But we are doing it. We have worked very hard since 2014. The NDA has brought Bihar out of the darkness of jungle raj and into the new light of development. Today, we are moving rapidly towards eliminating Naxalism, Maoism, and terrorism in Bihar. It is our duty to secure the future of Bihar's youth, and we are working towards it with complete sincerity," he said.

Bihar assembly elections will be held in two phases on November 6 and 11. The results will be declared on November 14.

While I agree that the past era had issues, I wish our PM would focus more on current development promises rather than constantly bringing up old history. Bihar needs forward-looking vision, not just reminders of the past.

As a young Bihari, I appreciate the initiative to learn from elders. My parents still get emotional talking about how difficult life was during those times. Development has definitely improved under current government! 💪

The term "Lathbandhan" is quite clever! It perfectly captures how these opposition parties operate in Bihar. Hope people make the right choice in upcoming elections.

The mention of Maoist terror is important. Many people don't know how deeply it affected Bihar's development. Industries were scared to invest, education suffered. We need to ensure such forces never return.

My family moved from Patna to Delhi during the worst years. Now we're considering moving back because things have improved so much! Roads are better, security is better. Bihar is finally progressing 🎉
