In a fiery political address that resonated through Patna, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh delivered a powerful indictment against the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), accusing the opposition party of systematically tarnishing Bihar's image on the global stage.
Stinging Criticism at Patna Rally
Speaking at a high-profile rally, the senior Bharatiya Janata Party leader didn't mince words as he targeted the RJD's legacy. "The RJD has not only failed Bihar domestically but has actively damaged our state's international reputation," Singh declared before an enthusiastic crowd.
Contrasting Governance Approaches
The Defence Minister drew sharp contrasts between the current NDA government's development-focused agenda and what he described as the RJD's "regressive politics." He emphasized how Bihar's global perception has shifted positively under Chief Minister Nitish Kumar's leadership, highlighting improved investment prospects and international partnerships.
Development vs Dynasty Politics
Singh's address underscored the BJP's commitment to development-oriented politics while positioning the RJD as a party more concerned with dynastic rule than substantive progress. "While we talk about infrastructure, education, and employment, they remain stuck in outdated political paradigms that have held Bihar back for decades," he asserted.
The Defence Minister's comments come at a crucial political juncture, with Bihar emerging as a key battleground state. His strong words signal the BJP's aggressive stance against regional opponents while reinforcing the party's narrative of transformative governance versus what they characterize as obstructionist politics.
Political analysts suggest this intensified rhetoric indicates the BJP's strategy to consolidate anti-RJD sentiment and position itself as the sole credible alternative for Bihar's development trajectory.
