Tejashwi Yadav Takes a Dig at NDA

After making the bold announcement at the press conference, Tejashwi Yadav wasted no time passing comments on the NDA (National Democratic Alliance). Recalling his 2022 poll promise to create 20 lakh job opportunities, he said NDA “did not even consider giving jobs for 20 years” and that it was only under his pressure that the jobs were given to people in Bihar.

The former Deputy Chief Minister of Bihar said, “The NDA could not provide jobs to the youth in 20 years. We will bring the Act within 20 days of coming to power, and implementation will be ensured in 20 months.”

Moreover, “I had promised government jobs in the last assembly polls as well. During the brief period I was in power, five lakh jobs were provided.” Yadav specifically highlighted the number of job opportunities he might have created had he gotten a five-year term.
