Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched a sharp attack on opposition parties ahead of the Bihar Assembly Election 2025, alleging deep internal conflict between what he termed as “Bihar’s most corrupt family” and “the country’s most corrupt family.”
PM Narendra Modi Targets RJD–Congress Rift Amid Bihar Assembly Election 2025 Battle
In a post shared on X (formerly Twitter), PM Modi wrote, “विधानसभा चुनाव को लेकर बिहार के सबसे भ्रष्ट परिवार और देश के सबसे भ्रष्ट परिवार में घमासान छिड़ गया है। कांग्रेस ने तो हर बूथ पर RJD को हराने की ठान ली है!” (A fierce clash has erupted between Bihar’s most corrupt family and the country’s most corrupt family over the Assembly elections. Congress has resolved to defeat RJD at every booth.)
Prime Minister’s remarks come amid growing tensions
The Prime Minister’s remarks come amid growing tensions between the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) and the Congress, both part of the opposition alliance in Bihar. Political analysts view Modi’s statement as a strategic move to highlight the internal discord within the opposition, particularly as both parties attempt to consolidate their voter base in the state.
Bihar, which has traditionally witnessed triangular contests, is once again emerging as a high-stakes political battleground. The BJP-led NDA is seeking to retain its influence, while the opposition bloc struggles to maintain unity amid leadership disputes and seat-sharing challenges.
PM Modi’s statement underscores the BJP’s intent to corner the opposition on corruption and credibility issues — themes that have remained central to the party’s election narrative.
As campaigning intensifies, both the RJD and Congress are expected to respond to the Prime Minister’s allegations, setting the stage for a charged and competitive electoral season in Bihar.
