Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday came down heavily on Mahagathbandhan slamming the alliance leaders for being out on bail in cases of corruption while trying to steal the 'Jan Nayak' title, which is associated with Bharat Ratna Karpoori Thakur.
Mahagathbandhan leader Lalu Prasad Yadav is the main accused in the IRCTC Hotel Scam case, with allegations of being the mastermind of the entire conspiracy. His wife, Rabri Devi, and son, Tejashwi Yadav, are also accused of benefiting from the deal.
"Inspired by the leader of the people, Karpoori Thakur, we are transforming good governance into prosperity. But on the other hand, you know better than me what the RJD and Congress are saying and doing...These people are out on bail in scams worth thousands of crores. Those who are out on bail are out on bail in theft cases. Now their habit of stealing is such that they are engaged in stealing the title of Karpoori Thakur. The people of Bihar will never tolerate this insult to the leader of the people, Karpoori Thakur," PM Modi told the gathering.
Earlier in the day, PM Modi launched the National Democratic Alliance's (NDA) election campaign in the state and paid tribute to Karpoori Thakur
