Bihar Chief Minister, Nitish Kumar criticised the BJP for not fulfilling its promises made during the 2014 general election campaign.
Taking a dig at the BJP for their promise of providing two-wheelers to 5,000 meritorious school girls, Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar asked the saffron party if they were planning to send minor girls to police station by driving two-wheelers without license.
"Do you intend to send girls of class IX - of about 13-14 year of age - to police station by driving two-wheelers without driving license?" asked Mr Kumar. "When I raised the issue as who would provide petrol for them, they came up with the idea that fuel would be free for two years. And now they are inspiring minors to drive two wheelers without a license and land in police stations," he said.
BJP had announced poll sops of two-wheeler, laptop, colour TV in mahadalit localities among others recently. The chief minister also called them a "nakalchi" or imitator.
"My government provided bicycle to 8.28 lakh boys of class IX and 8.15 lakh girls of same class thus totaling 16.40 lakh. Imitating this successful scheme, the BJP has come out with a promise to give two-wheeler to 5000 girls on the basis of merit in examination," he said.
Addressing an election meeting at Sherghati in Gaya district, the Janata Dal (United) leader asked PM Modi of his previous promises. He said, "you have gone back on your promises during Lok Sabha poll of giving Rs 15-20 lakh out of black money brought back to the country, jobs for youths and enhanced minimum support price to farmers?"
Mr Kumar talked about the seven items in his vision document, Nishchay, that includes Rs four lakh bank credit facilities for higher education of students and free WiFi services in colleges and universities in the state.
