Patna, May 25: Prime Minister Narendra Modi held a public rally in Bikram, Patna, in support of BJP candidate Ram Kripal Yadav. On Saturday, PM Modi conducted three rallies back-to-back across Bihar. After Bikram, he addressed the public in Karakat to support Rashtriya Lok Dal candidate Upendra Kushwaha and in Buxar for BJP candidate Mithilesh Tiwari.
During his speech in Bikram, PM Modi highlighted the significance of June 4, encouraging people to keep “Maner’s Laddu” ready, symbolizing the anticipated celebration. “Seeing your enthusiasm, it seems you’ve already enjoyed Maner’s Laddu. Keep it ready for June 4 as a new record will be set,” he remarked, indicating confidence in the BJP’s success.

PM Modi emphasized his dedication to working tirelessly for the nation’s development, contrasting it with the INDI alliance, which he accused of deceit and negligence. “I work 24 hours a day for you, while the INDI alliance lies to you 24 hours a day. They have no constructive agenda, which is why they are rejected. Some of them are in jail, some are out, and they spend their time abusing Modi.”
He criticized the opposition’s approach, suggesting their focus is self-serving. “The INDI people have one motto: let our work be done, let the public go to hell. They are roaming around Bihar with lanterns that only light up one house, leaving darkness everywhere else. In 30 years, they have only illuminated one house, neglecting the rest of Bihar.”

PM Modi stressed that the upcoming election is crucial for choosing the right Prime Minister for India, one who can represent the country’s strength on the global stage. He mocked the opposition’s alleged plan to rotate the PM’s position among several candidates. “India needs a strong PM, not a game of musical chairs among the Gandhi family, SP family, NCP family, AAP party, and Shiv Sena family.”
Addressing the issue of reservations, PM Modi reaffirmed the constitutional stance that reservations should not be based on religion. He accused the RJD and Congress of attempting to grant reservations to Muslims, which he claimed undermines SC, ST, and OBC reservations. “Bihar has fought hard for SC, ST, and OBC reservations. Our constitution, supported by Baba Saheb Ambedkar, says there will be no reservation based on religion. But RJD and Congress want to change that. Their anti-reservation activities have been exposed in these elections.”
PM Modi’s rally underscored his message of development, opposition to nepotism, and commitment to constitutional principles, setting the stage for the upcoming electoral battle.
