RJD leader and former Deputy Chief Minister of Bihar, Tejashwi Yadav, is set to commence a statewide tour in August, targeting the Nitish Kumar-led government on various critical issues. This tour will focus on crime, corruption, reservation policies, and the demand for special state status for Bihar.
Tejashwi Yadav's campaign comes at a time when the opposition sees an opportunity to leverage several pressing issues against the ruling party. The rise in crime, frequent incidents of bridge collapses, and revelations of government corruption have provided substantial grounds for opposition criticism. Notably, the Enforcement Directorate's disclosure of the immense wealth of Bihar's top official, Sanjeev Hans, has intensified the debate on corruption.
Additionally, the central government's refusal to grant special state status to Bihar, despite the significant budget allocation, remains a contentious issue. The opposition, led by Tejashwi Yadav, aims to keep this demand at the forefront of their campaign.
Tejashwi Yadav's tour signifies a strategic move by the opposition to capitalize on public discontent and push for accountability and reform. As the political landscape heats up, this campaign could play a pivotal role in shaping Bihar's future governance.
