Rahul and Tejashwi's Counterattack
Congress MP Rahul Gandhi launched sharp attacks on the central government during his rallies in Begusarai and Khagaria. He alleged that the Modi government is benefiting big industrialists while harming the rights of common people. Rahul also tried to demonstrate his grassroots connect by wading into a pond and interacting with fishermen. He stated that the public desires change and that this election is the voice of the poor and weaker sections.
RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav claimed that the results would be declared on November 14 and a new government would be sworn in on November 18.
