‘Nitish sets free those with AK-47': Tejashwi on shooting incident outside his Patna residence
Hitting out at Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, Tejashwi Yadav claimed that the people of the state were not safe alleging a 'crimnal disorder' of the law and order situation and 'anarchy' in Bihar. Patna (Bihar) : RJD leader and former Bihar Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav on Thursday lashed out at the Nitish Kumar-led state government over the law and order situation in the state after an incident of firing was reported near his residence in Patna. Speaking to mediapersons here, the RJD leader said, 'There is a complete rule of criminals in place now. There is no government. Anarchy has set in in the administration and government. Shooting is taking place outside my residence in a VVIP area, it had never happened before.' Taking a jab at the Nitish Kumar government, Yadav said, 'Nobody is safe in Bihar. There is a criminal disorder of the law and order in Bihar. Nitish ji forms laws and sets free those with AK-47. He supports criminals.' 'Criminals have become fearless in Bihar, and I am a former Chief Minister, Leader of Opposition in the state assembly, there are residences of the Development Commissioner, many ministers near my residence. Still, such incidents are happening. This is very serious… If the most secure area of the state is not safe and they cannot catch the criminals then Bihar CM Nitish Kumar should resign,' said Yadav. Ahead of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visit to Bihar tomorrow on June 20, Tejashwi Yadav hit out at the centre and claimed that the morale of the criminals was high in the 'demonic rule' of the NDA. 'In the demonic rule of NDA, the morale of the criminals protected by the government is so high that in the high security zone, at a short distance from the Governor's residence Raj Bhawan, Chief Minister's residence, Leader of the Opposition's residence, Judge's residence and the airport, the dreaded criminals are roaming around openly firing. Beware! What if someone calls it Jungle Raj? Anyway, the Prime Minister is coming to Bihar tomorrow, so the Godi media has to maintain a positive image,' posted Yadav on X. Earlier in the day, Tejashwi Yadav claimed that the Prime Minister is coming to Bihar to do 'politics of hatred' and should be ashamed to come to the state due to unfulfilled promises. 'If PM Modi listens to his 200 speeches that he has given so far in Bihar, he will be ashamed to come to Bihar. He made hundreds of promises, he will be ashamed of what to say to the people of Bihar… He is not coming to Bihar to provide employment, reduce inflation, eliminate poverty, but just to do the politics of Hindu-Muslim, the politics of hatred,' Yadav told ANI earlier today. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to visit Bihar tomorrow (June 20), where he is scheduled to address a public gathering in the Siwan district of the state. Earlier, as Deputy CM Vijay Kumar Sinha urged people to attend the event in large numbers, he said that PM Modi will highlight the resolution for 'Viksit Bihar' and give a message for 'freedom from nepotism.' Regarding nepotism, the RJD leader claimed that while the BJP criticises others of family-politics, half of the ministers in the state cabinet are dynasts, while also repeating his claim of NDA being a 'National Daamaad Aayog. 'They keep abusing us about family politics, but their alliance is filled with dynastic politicians, and the same thing is true even in their party (BJP). In Bihar, over 50 per cent of the ministers are dynasts… NDA in Bihar means 'National Daamaad Aayog'. PM Modi has fitted everyone's son-in-law in the 'Aayog',' the RJD leader said.

"PM Modi should be ashamed to come to Bihar": RJD's Tejashwi Yadav
Patna (Bihar) [India], June 19 (ANI): Rashtriya Janata Dal leader Tejashwi Yadav on Thursday hit out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his upcoming visit to Bihar, claiming that the PM is coming to Bihar to do 'politics of hatred' and should be ashamed to come to the state due to unfulfilled promises. 'If PM Modi listens to his 200 speeches that he has given so far in Bihar, he will be ashamed to come to Bihar. He made hundreds of promises, he will be ashamed of what to say to the people of Bihar... He is not coming to Bihar to provide employment, reduce inflation, eliminate poverty, but just to do the politics of Hindu-Muslim, the politics of hatred,' Yadav told ANI earlier today. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to visit Bihar tomorrow (June 20), where he is scheduled to address a public gathering in the Siwan district of the state. Earlier, as Deputy CM Vijay Kumar Sinha urged people to attend the event in large numbers, he said that PM Modi will highlight the resolution for 'Viksit Bihar' and give a message for 'freedom from nepotism.' 'The hero of development, the country's successful Prime Minister Narendra Modi is coming to Bihar on June 20. Along with the resolution of 'Developed Bihar', he is coming to give the message of freedom from nepotism to the country. There is a humble request to all of you to reach Siwan in maximum numbers and support the Prime Minister in this movement to free Bihar from the politics of destruction,' Sinha said on Wednesday Regarding nepotism, the RJD leader claimed that while the BJP criticises others of family-politics, half of the ministers in the state cabinet are dynasts, while also repeating his claim of NDA being a 'National Daamaad Aayog.' 'They keep abusing us about family politics, but their alliance is filled with dynastic politicians, and the same thing is true even in their party (BJP). In Bihar, over 50% of the ministers are dynasts... NDA in Bihar means 'National Daamaad Aayog'. PM Modi has fitted everyone's son-in-law in the 'Aayog',' the RJD leader said. Continuing his attack, he claimed that state minister Ashok Chaudhary is preventing the son of Bihar CM Nitish Kumar, Nishant Kumar, from entering politics. 'They are happy seeing Nitish Kumar unconscious--it's like a blessing from God for them. Ashok Chaudhary will set his family members, but they will not let Nishant Kumar (son of Nitish Kumar) come into politics,' he claimed. The RJD leader also subtly hit out at Prashant Kishor, founder of Jan Suraaj Party, claiming that the newly formed parties in the state were formed on an 'RSS quota' 'Ashok Chaudhary says that there is an RSS quota, but I am curious, and PM Modi and CM Nitish Kumar should clarify the places where the RSS quota works... We all know new parties are being formed in Bihar under the RSS quota. All the new parties that have been formed will be seen nowhere once the election is over in Bihar,' the RJD leader said. Prashant Kishor is the founder of the Jan Suraaj Party, started on October 2, 2024. Kishor, an election strategist turned politician, had announced in July of 2024 that his party would be contesting all the assembly election seats. Meanwhile, Kishor hit out at Tejashwi Yadav's nepotism jibe, claiming that Yadav only wants to see Nitish Kumar's son in politics so he can also raise allegations of nepotism instead of facing the allegations himself, with Yadav being the son of former Bihar CM Lalu Prasad Yadav. Kishor told reporters in Gopalganj, 'Tejashwi Yadav and his family face allegations of nepotism. Tejashwi Yadav wants that if Bihar CM Nitish Kumar's son also joins politics, he will say he is not the only one who faces allegations of nepotism. As far as I know, Bihar CM Nitish Kumar's son will not join politics and was not going to.' (ANI)

This landmark event aimed to bring together stakeholders from governance, academia, and civil society to reflect on Bihar's development journey and chart new directions for its inclusive development. Esteemed dignitaries releasing a report on Bihar during the National Seminar 'Bihar Leads the Rising East' held in Patna The seminar was conceptualized under the leadership of Shri Ram Bahadur Rai, Chancellor, SGT University, and Dr. Vinay Sahasrabuddhe, Former Member, Rajya Sabha, and Vice-Chairman, RMP. The event provides a platform for in-depth discussions on Bihar's economic resurgence, governance models, rural development, and future policy frameworks. The introductory address was given by Dr. Vinay Sahasrabuddhe, who said that 'Bihar today is emerging not just as a symbol of cultural pride but as the capital of aspirational progress. Institutions beyond Bihar, including SGT University, PPRC, and RMP, must collaborate to analyze the Purvodaya model and accelerate development in the eastern states. To realize the vision of 'Ek Bharat, Shreshtha Bharat,' we must document Bihar's success stories and share its best practices across the nation.' Shri Samrat Choudhary, Deputy Chief Minister of Bihar, spoke on the tremendous progress the state is making and will continue to make. 'Bihar is witnessing a historic transformation, where once no new medical colleges or universities came up for decades; today we proudly have 32 universities and a budget of Rs. 3.17 lakh crore. With Vikramshila University set for revival and land already allotted, we are reclaiming our legacy and building a stronger future for our youth.' Also, part of the start of the event was an address by Prof. (Dr.) Hemant Verma, Vice Chancellor, SGT University, who emphasized the importance of collaboration for development. 'Bihar has long been a cradle of intellectual tradition, from Nalanda to Takshashila. As development increasingly pivots toward the eastern states, universities must move beyond academics to engage with public policy, governance, and field-based research. Today's youth seek more than degrees, they want to understand and influence policies,' he said. The seminar featured three thematic sessions that explored innovation and impact stories from Bihar, evaluated the implementation of central policies in the state, and envisioned a roadmap for Viksit Bihar @ 2047. Policy insights and success stories were shared by dignitaries including Shri Harivansh Narayan Singh, Deputy Chairman, Rajya Sabha; Shri B.V.R.

The Valedictory Session was presided over by Shri Arif Mohammad Khan, Governor of Bihar, as the Chief Guest. In his key address, he talked about the vision of progress that he had for this state. 'Today, I see Bihar beginning to write its own story of transformation. The roads that once took two hours to travel now take just 45 minutes. The change is visible not just in our infrastructure but also in our spirit. Women, who were once under-represented in public service, are now stepping forward in greater numbers to serve in the police and other sectors. These may seem like scattered signs, but together they mark the dawn of a new Bihar.' The last session also included the ceremonial release of the report titled 'Bihar: BIMARU to Behtar.'
