New Delhi:

Campaign for Bihar assembly election is in full swing. Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, 69, faces multiple challengers in the Bihar election as he tries to win a fourth term.

Chirag Paswan stepped up his campaign today, seeking votes even from the BJP voters who do not support the Chief Minister. His tweet this morning read: "I request you to please vote for LJP candidates to implement #Bihar1stBihari1st. Everywhere else vote for the BJP. The coming government will be a #Nitish-free government."

This morning, Tejashwi Yadav, who is officially Nitish Kumar's main opponent, targeted the chief minister over his latest outburst at an election rally. "Respected Nitish ji is tired. The public is fed up of his stale, boring and age-old speeches," the RJD leader replied in a veiled dig to Mr Kumar, who a day earlier had accused Tejashwi Yadav's father attacked Tejashwi Yadav's father, Lalu Yadav, of ignoring the state's development during his rule.

Bihar will vote for a new government across three phases starting October 28, with results due on November 10.

"He Is Tired": Tejashwi Yadav's Dig After At Nitish Kumar

This morning, Tejashwi Yadav retaliated saying: "Respected Nitish ji is tired. The public is fed up of his stale, boring and age-old speeches."

"Nitish Kumar ji, who is tired, is running away from realities and rationalities. After ruining the future of the crores of youth in Bihar, he is now turning the pages of past," he wrote in a tweet in Hindi.

आदरणीय नीतीश जी पूर्णत: ऊर्जाविहीन हो चुके है। उनकी पकाऊ, थकाऊ, उबाऊ, बासी और घिसी-पिट्टी बातों से जनता पक चुकी है।

थक चुके नीतीश कुमार जी वास्तविकता, तर्क और तथ्यों से भाग रहे है। बिहार के करोड़ों युवाओं का वर्तमान और भविष्य बर्बाद कर वो इतिहास के बासी पन्नों को पलट रहे है।

"Ask Your Father": Nitish Kumar's Latest Outburst At Tejashwi Yadav

Nitish Kumar has lost his cool more than once while campaigning for the state elections in the last few days. In a scathing speech that referred (the reference was clear, if indirect) to the RJD's Tejashwi Yadav, Nitish Kumar said "ask your father or mother if they (Mr Yadav's parents) made any schools or colleges when they had the chance... or kept on making ill-gotten profits".
