Union Minister Chirag Paswan Wishes Bihar Residents a Happy Chhath Festival, Takes a Jibe at Rahul Gandhi

Chirag Paswan extends Chhath greetings to Bihar while criticizing Rahul Gandhi over constitutional respect and political issues.

Patna, November 13 (Daily Kiran) : Union Minister Chirag Paswan extended heartfelt wishes to the people of Bihar and the nation on the occasion of Chhath Puja. Speaking to reporters, he expressed his hopes for happiness and prosperity for all during this festive season.

“I wish everyone a joyous Chhath Puja,” Paswan said. “I pray to Chhath Maiya that this year brings happiness into our lives. May she give me the strength to fulfill my vision of a developed Bihar, making ‘Bihar First, Bihari First’ a reality, and to work towards filling every home and family with joy and prosperity.”

In discussing the issues of delimitation and women’s reservation, Paswan emphasized that the government, under Prime Minister Modi‘s leadership, has made efforts to address these concerns. He noted that previous sessions had been held to discuss these matters, particularly highlighting the apprehensions of political parties from southern states regarding population-based delimitation.

“Southern regional parties have repeatedly expressed their fears that delimitation based on population could disadvantage them,” he added. “They believe that the push for population control could lead to losses for their states.”

Regarding Prime Minister Modi’s recent statements, Paswan affirmed, “The Prime Minister is absolutely right. Our country operates under a constitution that does not favor any religion but is based solely on constitutional principles. This constitution, crafted by Dr. B.R. Ambedkar, has given a voice to the underprivileged and worked to bring marginalized communities into the mainstream.”

Paswan also took a dig at Rahul Gandhi, stating, “When Rahul Gandhi talks about respecting the constitution, he waves it around as if it’s a mere prop. Is the constitution something to flaunt from your pocket? It deserves respect and adherence. Neither Rahul Gandhi nor his family has ever honored the constitution or its creator. Everyone knows how Congress leaders treated Baba Saheb during his lifetime.”
