Bihar Needs Books, Jobs and Growth — Not Guns and Jungle Raj

Prime Minister Narendra Modi, addressing a massive rally on the sacred land of Sitamarhi, invoked the blessings of Goddess Sita and reminded people of the historic day of November 8, 2019, when the Ayodhya verdict came in favor of Ram Lalla. Modi recalled praying at Sitamarhi before that decision and said that the divine blessings of Sita Mata always bring good fortune. In a fiery speech, the Prime Minister attacked the RJD and Mahagathbandhan, accusing them of pushing Bihar back into the era of “jungle raj”. He said RJD’s leaders are teaching young children to become “goons” instead of inspiring them to study and dream big. “Bihar’s youth should hold books and laptops, not guns or kattas,” Modi declared, promising better education, sports infrastructure, and opportunities for young people. He highlighted his government’s development efforts from improving rail and air connectivity to reviving sugar mills and promoting ethanol production for farmers. Modi said the NDA government has transformed Bihar into a land of opportunity and pledged to continue strengthening industries, tourism, and local crafts like Madhubani painting and makhana export. Modi added, “Bihar’s daughters and workers are the pride of India. I am their brand ambassador.” He concluded by urging voters to reject jungle raj and support the NDA for a “Viksit Bihar” a developed, self-reliant, and proud state.
