The document, titled âBihar Ka Tejashwi Pranâ, lists the allianceâs main promises for the upcoming polls. Soon after, the BJP hit back at the Mahagathbandhan, dismissing the manifesto as full of false claims. BJP MP Ravi Shankar Prasad accused the RJD of being deeply corrupt and said that those talking about a ânew visionâ for Bihar are themselves facing fraud and corruption charges. He also mentioned that a Delhi court recently framed charges in a related case and that the partyâs record has always been marked by corruption. Union Minister Chirag Paswan also criticised the manifesto, saying that the promise to give one government job per family is unrealistic and impossible to fulfil.

On NDA's CM face, VIP chief and Mahagathbandhan's Deputy CM face, Mukesh Sahani takes a potshot at the alliance. He says, "They should hold a press conference and make the announcement; only then will we understand. In Maharashtra also, they said that they were contesting the election in Eknath Shinde's name, but in the end, he was left out. However, they will not get the chance to do all these things here, as they won't get the majority. Mahagathbandhan will form the government." Reiterating the promises made in the manifesto, RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav said, âWe made our announcement, and this is our commitment, which we will fulfil together. We have also made a major promise to regularise contractual, outsourced, and other employees. Alongside, we will implement schemes like OPYAS and other old pension schemes. Specifically for journalists, press clubs will be established at the commissionerate and divisional levels...â BJP National Spokesperson CR Kesavan slammed the Mahagathbandhanâs manifesto for the Bihar elections, saying it lacks a clear plan or vision for the state. He alleged that the document is full of false promises meant to mislead voters and create division. Kesavan said people in Bihar are aware of the RJD-Congress allianceâs record and will reject their attempts to deceive the public. He also pointed out internal tensions within the Mahagathbandhan, claiming that the RJD sidelined and embarrassed Rahul Gandhi and the Congress during the manifesto release. According to him, this shows Rahulâs declining influence not just in Bihar but across India, where he is increasingly seen as a political burden for his party. Union Minister Rajnath Singh and several chief ministers from BJP-ruled states will also campaign for NDA candidates across Bihar. Throughout the day, Amit Shah will hold rallies in Darbhanga, Samastipur, and Begusarai to support NDA nominees. Meanwhile, Rahul Gandhi will join RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav and other INDIA bloc leaders at public meetings in Muzaffarpur and Darbhanga. Election campaigning for the Bihar Assembly polls is picking up speed. With the first phase of voting set for November 6, both the NDA and the Mahagathbandhan are working hard to win over voters. The INDIA bloc manifesto for the Bihar assembly polls, released on Tuesday, promised to take initiatives to ensure that the Centre grants official language status to Bhojpuri, Magahi, Bajjika and Angika. "Initiatives will be taken to include the Bhojpuri, Magahi, Bajjika and Angika languages in the Eighth Schedule of the Constitution so that they can be accorded the status of official languages," the manifesto said. "The Bihar Prohibition and Excise Act will be reviewed and the ban on toddy (tari) in the state will be removed. Immediate relief will be provided to Dalits and other poor people languishing in jail for violating the law. Traditional occupations based on toddy and mahua will be excluded from the ambit of the prohibition law," the document said. RJD leader and INDIA bloc's chief ministerial candidate Tejashwi Yadav said the move would restore the livelihoods of those dependent on the traditional toddy trade. "The community which has been doing this toddy business for generations has no other means of livelihood or agricultural land. This ban needs to be removed," Yadav said. Sale and consumption of toddy are banned in the state under the Bihar Prohibition and Excise Act, which came into force in April 2016. The INDIA bloc, in its 32-page-long 'Bihar ka Tejashwi Pran', has promised 200 units of free electricity to every household in the state. Congress said that Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, will join the INDIA bloc campaign for the Bihar polls on Wednesday. |Jan Suraaj Founder Prashant Kishor on Tuesday addressed the issue of his two voter id cards. "I am a voter from the Kargahar Assembly constituency since 2019. For two years, when I was in Kolkata, I had made a voter ID card there. Since 2021, my voter ID has been for the Kargahar Assembly constituency. If the ECI is saying that my name is enrolled as an elector in other places as well, then why are they troubling everyone by carrying out the SIR? I have nothing to do with the notice issued by the ECI..." he said. INDIA bloc manifesto talks about employment, introduction of Old Pension Scheme, said CPI(ML) Liberation leader Dipankar Bhattacharya. Mahagathbandhan promises to remove ban on toddy if voted to power, says all contractual workers in Bihar govt departments, 'Jeevika Didis' to be made permanent.

He said the manifesto has 25 major points. After releasing the INDIA bloc's manifesto 'Tejashwi Pran' for the 2025 Bihar polls, RJD leader and Mahagathbandhan CM candidate Tejashwi Yadav says, "Today, whether you go to the block office or the police station, nothing gets done without paying a bribe. Officers have become so overbearing that elected representatives are no longer respected and their voices are ignored. A minister remains a minister in name only, he is powerless and cannot get anything done... This time the people of Bihar will bring change." After releasing INDIA bloc's manifesto for Bihar elections, Congress leader Pawan Khera says, "You've seen that the Mahagathbandhan was the first to announce its CM candidate. It was also the Mahagathbandhan that released its pledges - what we call our manifesto, first. Some people (referring to the NDA) dismiss such pledges as mere rhetoric, but we released ours today before anyone else. This clearly shows who is serious about Bihar, who is thinking about the state day and night.â Mahagathbandhan releases its manifesto titled 'Bihar Ka Tejashwi Pran' for the upcoming Bihar Election 2025. JD(U) leader KC Tyagi said, "Our manifesto has already been implemented â whether it is about social empowerment or unemployment. We are ahead of them (Mahagathbandhan) in every field..." Chief Minister Nitish Kumar says, "Earlier, some miscreants used to create disturbances in Hindu temples during the evenings. To prevent incidents like theft and misconduct, since 2016, we have ensured boundary construction around Hindu temples that are over 60 years old..." NDA is likely to release its 'Viksit Bharat' manifesto on October 30. ECI issues notice to Prashant Kishor on two voter-id cards.

Therefore, you should present your side within three days regarding the entry of your name in more than one constituency." 'Toddy' to be exempted from anti-liquor law in Bihar if INDIA bloc comes to power, declares RJD's Tejashwi Yadav at poll rally in Saran. On Jan Suraaj Party founder Prashant Kishor's remarks on voter ID, Union Minister Chirag Paswan says, "When you yourself have two voter IDs, how can you question others or claim to expose othersâ so-called 'pol khol', when you are the one facing allegations of dual voter registration yourself?" On NDAâs Chief Ministerial face, Union Minister Chirag Paswan says, "How many times will the same announcement be made?
