“The roti should keep being turned on the tawa, otherwise it will burn,” said Lalu, sharing a photo on X with Tejashwi after casting his vote. "Twenty years is too long! Now, for the young government and the new Bihar, a Tejashwi government is absolutely essential," further said Lalu.
Lalu's wife, also a former cheif minister, Rabri Devi also hit out at Prime Minister Modi over law and order issues, mouting her "katta attack" and alleging that BJP members were responsible for incidents of violence. “Narendra Modi ji makes statements on katta (guns) but it is the people of his party who fire bullets, they abduct, fire bullets and kill people. Modi ji doesn’t remember all that,” she said.
