Sitamarhi, Nov 8 : A big fan of Union Minister Chirag Paswan was seen in Sitamarhi on Saturday. Shubhash Paswan, a resident of Hajipur who came to attend Prime Minister Narendra Modi's rally in Sitamarhi, had a tattoo of Chirag Paswan inked on his chest.

Speaking to IANS, he said, 'Chirag Paswan is carrying forward the vision of 'Bihari First.' His father had devoted his life to serving the people of Bihar.'

'That's why I wanted to show that Chirag Paswan continues to receive immense love from the people,' he added.

IANS also spoke to some attendees who were present at the rally.

One of them said, 'You can see the record number of people who have come here to attend PM Modi's rally. PM Modi has always cared for the people of Bihar. The NDA will win with a huge majority this time.'

Another attendee said, 'I am very happy to have attended this rally. The NDA will return to power in Bihar with a massive victory.'

Earlier in the day, Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched a sharp attack on the RJD and Congress, saying the bumper voting in the first phase of the Bihar Assembly polls had delivered a 65-volt shock to them.

Addressing a rally in Sitamarhi, the Prime Minister said there was widespread discussion that Bihar's youth and women had voted decisively for development and for the NDA.

'In the first phase of polling, the proponents of jungle raj have received a 65-volt shock. The youth of Bihar have chosen development; they have chosen the NDA. The sisters and daughters of Bihar have also ensured a record victory for the NDA,' PM Modi said.

PM Modi alleged that RJD's campaign messages revealed their mindset.

'Just listen to the songs and slogans of these proponents of jungle raj. On RJD platforms, innocent children are being made to say that they want to become gangsters. Should a child from Bihar become a gangster or a doctor'? PM Modi asked.

He said the NDA was offering books, computers, sports equipment and opportunities in education and start-ups ' not guns.

'Jungle raj means guns, cruelty, bitterness, bad manners and corruption,' PM Modi said, adding that leaders such as Karpoori Thakur and Bhola Paswan Shastri had envisioned social justice and development, but that era was derailed during the RJD's tenure.
