Patna (Bihar) [India], March 7 (ANI): RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav on Friday launched a scathing attack on the Bihar government, led by Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, while addressing the ‘Divyang Adhikar Sammelan’ in Patna.
He criticised the state government for failing to address the issues of Divyangs (specially-abled persons) despite being in power for 11 years with a “double-engine government” and 20 years under Nitish Kumar’s leadership.
“It has been 11 years of double-engine government and 20 years of Nitish Kumar’s government, but they never held any discussion or tried to resolve the issues of Divyangs,” said Yadav.
Yadav’s criticism didn’t hold back. He recited a few lines on the Bihar government being useless, the system being flawed, the chief minister being tired and helpless, and the Divyangs continuing to suffer.
“I would like to say few lines for this government, ‘sarkar khatara, system nakara; mukhyamantri hai thaka haara, divyang fir raha maara maara’…,” said Tejashwi Yadav.
Earlier, Tejashwi Yadav reached Gardanibagh in Patna and extended his support to students. He also pressed their distinct demands. Tejashwi alleged Nitish Kumar of being in an ‘unconscious state’ and stated that the students’ demands will not be fulfilled until the present government is in power.
“I assure those who are protesting that we will raise your issues in the House. The government…the CM is ‘unconscious’. He will not be able to name his departments. This is the truth. The only solution is to change the government. You will not get your rights till the time this government remains. What hopes could we have from someone unconscious?” Yadav, Leader of Opposition (LoP) Bihar Legislative Assembly, said.
Tejashwi Yadav further alleged the government for ‘exploiting’ workers, and they are also unable to even pay minimum wage to women workers employed with Anganwadi and ASHA.
“When our government is formed, we will work to get justice for all of them,” Yadav told reporters.
“This government is exploiting women, cooks, self-help groups, Anganwadi, ASHA sisters. They are doing an injustice to them. Only Rs 1,600 per month. What will this do for them in this era of inflation? They are not even able to pay the minimum wage,” he added. (ANI)
