In an exclusive interview with NDTV, Bihar opposition leader Tejashwi Yadav dismissed speculation about confusion within the Mahagathbandhan alliance over its Chief Ministerial face. Deflecting the question, he asked why the BJP has not declared its CM candidate either. Emphasizing the demand for change in Bihar, Tejashwi said the public is tired of corruption, unemployment, and rising crime. He asserted that the people of Bihar want a new government, a corruption-free and crime-free state, and that the public will ultimately decide who their next Chief Minister should be.
