Election Results LIVE: BJP numbers down matter of concern, says Chirag Paswan
The LJP leader spoke to HT about his 100% strike rate and why he wants a review of schemes like Agniveer
Were you surprised by this amazing mandate that you got?
To be honest, no I was not surprised. I would say this was the hard work done by me and my party workers and it was a very deserved victory to be very honest. We were very confident from the kind of support we were getting from the people, specially for the vision of Bihar First, Bihari First, that gives me very much confidence that we will bag all the five seats. Yes, all the credit goes to my party people and the people of Bihar.
What do you think of the profile of the candidates that the people have voted for?
The voters have voted for the samikaran, now let me tell what this samikaran is, there are parties that are making political equations on the basis of casteism, communism and very proudly they flaunt. Whereas, my samikaran comes from “Mahila, and Yuva” and that’s what is represented in my candidates, if you look at them, there are four young candidates, there is Rajesh verma a young educated guy, Arun Bharti, a MBA guy from Jamui, There’s is Sahntuni Choudhary from Samasti pur, she is one of the youngest MP, these are those faces who represents the youngsters of my state.Anyways this the kind of image i want portray in the country of Bihar. Till date Bihar was known for Apradh, Bhrshtachaarand now you have these young educated faces, who very well talk about Bihar.
Now, we have mahila 40% from these seats, there are two female MPs out of five, so Nari shakti adhiniyam was 100% implemented by my Party. This is my samikaran, for what the people of my state have voted for.
