He could also have promised a million jobs just for promising. But I am not doing it because this will become a reality at the first Cabinet meeting.

“People used to make fun of that from where we are going to create jobs. Now you must understand that there is a difference between profit and employment. We are talking about government jobs here, ”said Tejashwi Yadav, explaining that there are job opportunities for teachers, professors, junior engineers, doctors, nursing laboratory technicians. “We need more police for the law and order of the state. Manipur is a smaller state but has more police per lakh population than Bihar, ”said Tejashwi.
The BJP has promised 19 lakh of jobs in addition to the promise of free vaccinations. Slamming the figure of promise, Tejashwi said: “Who is the face of CM of the BJP? Nitish Kumar. Were you able to provide jobs? He already gave up and said he couldn’t give any more jobs. So how will BJP offer 19 lakh jobs? Who are they kidding?
