New Delhi:
Rashtriya Janata Dal leader Tejashwi Yadav, who has made unemployment in Bihar a major poll issue, released the party poll manifesto today reiterating his promise of 10 lakh jobs and better health infrastructure.
He also hit out at the Bharatiya Janata Party for trying to “fool people”. “Our promise for 10 lakh jobs is genuine, we could have also made fake promises of 50 lakh jobs like the NDA government,” Mr Yadav, the chief ministerial face of the Grand Alliance, said today.
The state is going to vote on October 28, November 3 and November 7, and the results will be announced on November 10.
