Development will accelerate: Union Minister Sarbananda Sonowal exude confidence in NDA's victory in Bihar polls

Union Minister Sarbananda Sonowal predicts NDA victory in Bihar polls, says development will accelerate under their government as Yogi Adityanath campaigns against RJD-Congress.

"The public believes that if the NDA government is formed, development will accelerate - Sarbananda Sonowal"

Patna, October 17

Union Minister Sarbananda Sonowal on Friday exuded confidence in NDA's victory in the Bihar Assembly election, reaffirming that the alliance has the complete trust of the public.

"Our NDA government will be formed... Everything is fine here, and the public is very happy. The public believes that if the NDA government is formed, development will accelerate," he said.

On Thursday, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister and the Bharatiya Janata Party's star campaigner, Yogi Adityanath, entered Bihar's election battlefield, addressing rallies in support of the BJP's Ramkripal Yadav (Danapur) and the NDA's Shyam Rajak (Phulwari Sharif).

Launching a sharp attack on the RJD-Congress alliance, he accused them of derailing Bihar's growth by fueling divisive "development versus burqa" politics.

"Those who once pushed Bihar into Jungle Raj are again trying to mislead people," Yogi said, warning voters against "fake polling" and alleging that RJD-Congress wanted to return to the era of ballot snatching and fraudulent voting. He said these parties oppose EVMs because they fear transparent elections.

The UP Chief Minister reminded the crowd of Bihar's "dark years" between 1990 and 2005, saying that under RJD-Congress rule, "the land of knowledge became a hub of crime and dynasty politics." He accused them of sheltering mafias and driving Biharis to migrate in search of livelihood.

Along with Yogi Adityanath, the BJP has named prominent figures, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, and Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, among others, as party campaigners.

BJP chief ministers: Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma, Delhi CM Rekha Gupta, Madhya Pradesh CM Mohan, and Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavis are also included in the star campaigners list.

The list also features some of the biggest names from Bhojpuri cinema, including actor-singer-turned-politician Pawan Singh, Manoj Tiwari, Ravi Kishan, and Dinesh Lal Yadav "Nirahua."

Bihar will go to the polls in two phases on November 6 and 11, with results scheduled to be announced on November 14. The last date for filing nominations for the first phase is October 17.

I remember the days when we couldn't step out after dark in Patna. The law and order situation has improved significantly under current leadership. Let's not go back to those dark days.

While development is important, I wish politicians would focus more on job creation for youth. Bihar's unemployment rate is still concerning. Hope whichever party wins addresses this urgently.

The involvement of film stars in politics is interesting. While it brings attention, I hope voters make decisions based on development work rather than celebrity appeal. Bihar deserves serious governance.

Yogi ji is absolutely right about EVMs. Transparent elections are crucial for democracy. The opposition's constant questioning of EVMs only shows their fear of fair elections. Jai Bihar! 🙏

As a Bihari living outside the state, I can see the positive changes whenever I visit home. Better roads, improved healthcare facilities - these are real achievements that matter to common people.
