Patna (Bihar) [India], April 8 : Coming out hard against Prime Minister Narendra Modi's pitch to cross 400 Lok Sabha seats in the coming polls for NDA, former Deputy CM of Bihar and RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav said, what is the point of crossing 400 when the Prime Minister never talks about essential things such as employment, farmers, youths and labourers?
"Modi Ji neither talks about jobs nor about students, youth, farmers or labourers. He does not talk about villages and poor people. Modi Ji does not talk about education, health, schools or hospitals. Then what is the point of crossing 400?" the RJD leader posted on X.
He further said that if PM Modi does not talk about the real issues, then forget about 400; the BJP-NDA alliance will not even win 100 seats in the Lok Sabha polls.
"If Modi ji does not talk about the real issues, then forget about 400; they won't be able to win 100 seats either. So instead of Modi ji, issues should be discussed," Tejashwi Yadav said.
Earlier, after the visit of PM Modi to Bihar's Jamui, Tejashwi Yadav, said on Saturday that PM Modi should have at least told what he has done for the development of Jamui.
Speaking to reporters, he said that he, along with several party leaders, are going to present their views to the people.
"We are going to Jamui and will present our views among the people. When PM Modi went to Jamui, he did not talk about 'Parivarvad' because everywhere in Bihar, their own candidates are from some political family...The Prime Minister should have at least told what he has done for the development of Jamui", Tejashwi Yadav said.
