RJD leader and former Bihar deputy chief minister Tejashwi Yadav acknowledges supporters during an election rally in Jamui.
Patna: RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav released Rashtriya Janata Dal’s manifesto for the Lok Sabha elections on Saturday, promising five airports in Bihar. Releasing RJD’s Parivartan Patra, Lalu Yadav’s son also promised ₹1 lakh per year to “sisters” from poor families on Raksha Bandhan.
Tejashwi Yadav, who released the document in the presence of senior RJD leaders, said his party is making 24 promises to the people of the nation and Bihar.
“We have released ‘Parivartan Patra’. We have brought 24 ‘jan vachan’ (public promise) for 2024. These 24 ‘jan vachan’ are our commitments that we will fulfil,” he said.
Tejashwi Yadav said if the INDIA bloc forms a government at the Centre, his party will ensure construction of five new airports in Bihar for better connectivity.
“For better connectivity in Bihar, we are going to build 5 new airports in the state — in Purnea, Bhagalpur, Muzaffarpur, Gopalganj and Raxaul,” he said.
Tejashwi Yadav also promised special status to Bihar.
“We will implement OPS (Old Pension Scheme) and we will provide special status to Bihar,” he said.
He also promised to rid the state of unemployment.
“From 15th August, people will start getting freedom from unemployment. If our government comes to power, the process of providing jobs will start from 15th August,” he said.
Tejashwi Yadav promised that cooking gas cylinders will be provided at ₹500.
“On the occasion of Raksha Bandhan, we will provide ₹1 lakh to our sisters belonging to the poor household, every year. We will provide gas cylinders at ₹500,” he added.
The RJD leader promised one crore jobs to youths across the country.
“If our INDIA alliance is voted to power, we will give government jobs to one crore youth across the country…Today unemployment is our biggest enemy and BJP people did not talk about this. They had promised to give 2 crore jobs but we do what we say,” he added.
