Giriraj Singh Confident of NDA Victory, Slams Opposition
Ahead of the polling for the second phase of the Bihar elections, Union Minister Giriraj Singh on Sunday expressed confidence that the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government would be formed with a huge majority. Speaking to ANI, Giriraj Singh said, “It is the last day of polling on 11th November, and the voter turnout will be as good as it was on 6th November, and our government will be formed with a huge majority.”
He further said that the record voter turnout, especially among women, shows that people have rejected the Mahagathbandhan. “On 14th November, Rahul Gandhi will get an electric shock. Rahul Gandhi virtually selected the Congress candidates for Bihar, and this time, the people here will send him back to Italy. Kharge ji is not able to understand the pulse of the people. Be it Jairam Ramesh, Kharge ji, or Rahul Gandhi, this is change, and the change today has rejected the Mahagathbandhan. Women and the people here have placed their trust in PM Narendra Modi and Nitish Kumar. This is change. They have rejected the power and jungle raj of the Mahagathbandhan,” he said.
Campaign Concludes for Second Phase
Elections for 122 assembly seats are scheduled on November 11. As the campaign for the second phase of the Bihar polls concluded, Union Minister Chirag Paswan expressed confidence that the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) would form the government with a significant margin in the state.
