In a sharp political attack ahead of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s upcoming visit to Bihar on June 20, RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav mocked the event by dubbing it a meeting of the “National Daamad Aayog” (a satirical take on NDA – National Democratic Alliance).
Taking a swipe at the Prime Minister, Tejashwi alleged that Modi is not visiting Bihar to address key issues like unemployment, poverty, or migration but instead to deliver “another long speech” and “cheat the people once again.”
“The Prime Minister is coming not to provide jobs, end poverty, or stop migration but to bless the ‘National Daamad Aayog.’ Will he garland the three ‘sons-in-law’ on stage—Santosh Majhi, Ashok Choudhary’s son-in-law, or Chirag Paswan’s brother-in-law?” Tejashwi said sarcastically while addressing reporters in Patna.
The former Bihar Deputy Chief Minister accused the BJP-led NDA of nepotism and favoritism, especially towards relatives of senior leaders. He also questioned the influence of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) in state appointments, referencing remarks made by Bihar minister Ashok Choudhary.
“JDU’s own minister admits appointments are made from the RSS quota. We want to know how many such people exist in the government. The CM should clarify how the RSS quota operates in Bihar,” he said.
Further, Tejashwi took aim at JDU leaders Ashok Choudhary and Sanjay Jha, labeling them as part of a so-called “Bhuja Party” (a colloquial jab implying sycophancy or self-serving politics). He accused them of sidelining Bihar CM Nitish Kumar’s son, Nishant Kumar, despite his apparent interest in joining politics.
“Sanjay Jha has secured positions for his children, Ashok Choudhary for his kids, and Deepak Ji for his wife. But Nishant Kumar is being kept out. These ‘Bhuja Party’ leaders are misusing the CM, who appears to be in an unconscious state. They’ve secured positions for all their relatives,” Tejashwi added.
Tejashwi’s scathing remarks come in the backdrop of PM Modi’s scheduled visit to Bihar, which is seen as part of the NDA’s post-election outreach and political consolidation ahead of upcoming state polls.
