Umesh Kushwaha Critiques Lalu Prasad Yadavs Charwaha Vidyalaya Concept

Patna, October 21 (Daily Kiran) : Umesh Singh Kushwaha, the state president of Janata Dal (United), criticized the ‘Charwaha Vidyalaya’ concept associated with Lalu Prasad Yadav during a press conference in Darbhanga on Wednesday. He highlighted the NDA government’s commitment to expanding higher education infrastructure in Bihar.

Addressing party workers ahead of the MLC elections, Kushwaha stated that the government’s aim is to establish engineering colleges, medical colleges, and polytechnic institutes in every district. This initiative is designed to provide better higher education opportunities for the youth.

Targeting the Grand Alliance, Kushwaha claimed that the approach to education during Yadav’s tenure starkly contrasts with the NDA’s emphasis on technical and vocational training. He criticized the educational record of the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) and compared it to the current government’s development-oriented strategy.

Kushwaha asserted that voters are becoming increasingly aware of issues related to education and development, indicating that the NDA is gaining widespread support. He urged voters in the Darbhanga graduate and teacher constituencies to back NDA-supported candidates in the upcoming Bihar Assembly elections.

Expressing confidence in the coalition’s prospects, Kushwaha predicted that NDA candidates Ghanshyam Rai and Suresh Kumar would win by significant margins in their respective constituencies. He called on party workers to actively campaign for both candidates.

These remarks came amidst ongoing election campaigning for eight Bihar Legislative Council seats, including four teacher and four graduate constituencies. Campaigning for these elections concluded at 5 PM on Wednesday. Voting is scheduled for October 23, with counting set for October 27. The main competition is expected to be between candidates from the NDA, RJD, Congress, and the Jan Suraj Party.
