Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday renewed his attack on the Mahagathbandhan following the conclusion of Bihar Assembly Elections 2025 first phase. PM Modi alleged that the “people of jungle raj” who are eager to regain power have no real intention of serving the public or working for their welfare.
… I have before me a vast power of women whose blessings have always been upon all of us, upon the NDA, and I am grateful to the women’s power of Bihar. In the first phase of elections, there has been a tremendous turnout for the NDA candidates… I have come to seek your support, your cooperation, and your blessings…,” PM Modi said at a rally here.
PM Modi Says ‘Jungle Raj’ Leaders Intimidate Poor and Weaker Sections
During the rally, PM Modi said, “You can imagine why these Jungle Raj people are so desperate to return to power. They don’t want to serve the public. They want to rob the public at gunpoint, rob them… This is their plan… This is the sound of Jungle Raj. This is an attempt to intimidate sisters and daughters, the poor, Dalits, Mahadalits, and backward and extremely backward communities… People of jungle raj can never build anything. They are the epitome of destruction and misery.”
PM Modi Calls RJD Manifesto ‘Packet of Lies’
Earlier in the day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, sounding the poll bugle in Bihar’s Aurangabad on Friday, took a sarcastic jab at the Opposition’s ‘rift-ridden’ Mahagathbandhan alliance, claiming that the Congress “does not have faith” in its ally RJD’s manifesto, which he said was “a packet of lies”.
Aurangabad district, located in the south of Bihar, is one of the 20 districts where polls will be held during the second phase of the State’s Assembly elections. The district contains six assembly constituencies, namely Goh, Obra, Nabinagar, Kutumba (SC), Aurangabad, and Rafiganj.

Speculation has been rife over an alleged rift in the Mahagathbandhan. While the alliance partners, including Congress, have denied such claims, PM Modi had earlier claimed that the RJD “forcefully” took the Chief Ministerial post from Congress despite the latter’s objections during the negotiation phase during the election preparations.
