A day before Bihar goes to the polls for the first phase on October 28, Congress President Sonia Gandhi released a video message and urged the people of Bihar to vote against the government whose “actions and intentions they are questionable. ” Congress leader Rahul Gandhi shared the message on Twitter advocating a change in Bihar that can be introduced by the Mahagathbandhan alliance.
Dear my brothers and sisters from Bihar. The Bihar government has gone astray. High in power and ego, the current Bihar government has strayed from its path. Neither what they say nor what they do is good. The workers are helpless, the farmers are anxious, and the youth are disappointed. The public is with the Mahagatbandhan Congress and it is the call of Bihar ”, said Sonia.
