CM holds e-interaction with JD(U) workers in 5 districts

PATNA: Launching his virtual election campaign through social media platform, JD(U) chief and Bihar CM Nitish Kumar on Sunday called upon the party’s grassroots workers to ask common people as to what was the condition of road and power supply in their area during the 15-year RJD rule of Lalu Prasad-Rabri Devi.
Addressing the party’s booth level office-bearers of East Champaran, West Champaran, Sitamarhi, Sheohar and Madhubani districts in four separate sessions through a video calling app, Nitish told them that new generation might not be knowing about the very poor situation of law and order during the RJD regime before 2005. “You should inform the young boys and girls as to how massacres and kidnappings for ransom used to take place in the state on a regular basis in the RJD rule and how things have improved during the JD(U)-BJP rule,” he said.
He was addressing the party’s office-bearers on the first day of his six-day interaction programme. “More than 7,000 office-bearers are being connected to the CM through the app in a particular session. The CM on Sunday addressed altogether four sessions, each of one hour,” senior JD(U) leader and minister Ashok Choudhary told TOI. He said booth to district level office-bearers of an average 10 assembly constituencies are being connected with the CM in a particular session.
Senior JD(U) leaders like RCP Singh, Rajiv Ranjan Singh alias Lalan Singh, besides Choudhary and Sanjay Kumar Jha also addressed the party workers.
Addressing the session, Jha said, “Our party chief Nitish Kumar is man of masses. He loves to remain with people and interact directly with the party workers. Had an abnormal situation like Covid-19 pandemic not arisen, he would have gone to the districts to have a direct interaction with the party workers.”
