PM Modi’s ‘Jungle Raj’ dig at RJD, Congress in Bihar: Top quotes from Siwan rally
Siwan, Bihar – June 20, 2025:
In a charged election speech, Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched a scathing attack on the RJD-Congress alliance in Bihar. Speaking at a rally in Siwan, he warned voters of the return of “Jungle Raj” if the opposition wins power. His remarks centered on law and order, development, and youth empowerment — key themes in the BJP-led NDA’s Bihar campaign.
🔥 “Do You Want Jungle Raj to Return?”
Modi opened his speech with a sharp question:
“Do you want your children to grow up surrounded by fear again? That’s what Jungle Raj brought — crime, kidnapping, and terror on the streets.”
He emphasized that people still remember the lawlessness during RJD’s rule in the 1990s and early 2000s. By using the term “Jungle Raj,” he aimed to stir strong memories among voters, especially those old enough to recall those times.
⚠️ Attack on Congress and Dynastic Politics
The Prime Minister didn’t spare the Congress party. He accused them of forming a “selfish alliance” with RJD and having no plan for Bihar’s future.
“Congress has no roadmap. It only wants power for the family, not progress for the people,” he said.
Modi repeated his long-standing criticism of dynastic politics, stating that such alliances care only about votes and not governance.
🚀 Development vs. Destruction
Modi spoke at length about infrastructure growth under NDA rule. He listed better roads, increased electricity access, new schools, and health facilities as proof of progress.
“We brought roads where there were potholes, electricity where there was darkness, and colleges where there were empty promises.”
This contrast between the NDA’s “Vikas Raj” and the RJD’s “Jungle Raj” was a recurring theme.
👨🎓 A Message to the Youth
Bihar’s youth featured prominently in Modi’s speech. He urged young voters to focus on education, skills, and innovation — not outdated political slogans.
“The youth don’t want lathis; they want laptops. They don’t need gangs; they need good governance.”
He highlighted schemes like Skill India and Start-Up India to reinforce the NDA’s commitment to job creation and entrepreneurship.
🤝 Unholy Alliance? Modi Warns of Instability
Modi called the RJD-Congress alliance an “opportunistic partnership” formed only to defeat the BJP.
“They come together only before elections. After that, they fight among themselves and forget the people.”
He warned voters that such coalitions lead to unstable governments that stall development.
👩👧 Women’s Safety and Welfare
Women’s empowerment was another major talking point. Modi claimed that NDA policies such as Ujjwala Yojana (LPG subsidy) and PM Awas Yojana (housing scheme) brought real change in rural women’s lives.
“We gave dignity to our mothers and sisters. During Jungle Raj, they feared stepping outside after sunset. Today, they walk freely.”
📌 Final Takeaway
PM Modi’s rally in Siwan signaled the BJP’s core campaign strategy: to draw a sharp contrast between the past under RJD-Congress and the present under NDA. With development projects and law enforcement achievements as proof, Modi urged voters to reject the opposition’s “dark past” and choose progress over fear.
As Bihar approaches another crucial election, expect more such hard-hitting speeches and sharpened messaging from both sides of the political divide.
