RJD leader promises new legislation within 20 days and vows “no home without a job” if the opposition wins in the upcoming elections
Major Promise to Bihar Voters
In a major political pitch ahead of the upcoming Bihar Assembly elections, RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav announced that every family in Bihar will get at least one government job if the opposition alliance forms the government.
He emphasized that this is not an election gimmick but a “doable and realistic plan.”
“This is my pledge. This can be done. This is no jumlebaazi,” he said.
Tejashwi’s Roadmap for Job Creation
The RJD leader laid out a step-by-step plan to turn this promise into reality:
- Within 20 days of forming the government, a new law will be introduced to guarantee jobs.
- Within 20 months, no household in Bihar will remain without at least one government employee.
- The legislation will make it a legal right for families without a government job to get one.
Sharp Attack on Ruling NDA
Tejashwi Yadav criticized the ruling NDA for failing to tackle unemployment in the state. He said the government relied on allowance schemes rather than creating real job opportunities.
He added that unemployment is Bihar’s biggest challenge, and the NDA has ignored it for two decades. His proposed law, he claimed, would directly address this issue and boost the state’s economy.
