Why is Bihar still a poor State?</p><p>2. Why are women so unsafe in Bihar?</p><p>3. Why health services remain paralysed here?</p><p>4. Why crime, of late, has increased by leaps and bounds?</p><p>5. Why is corruption at its peak?</p><p>6. Why is unemployment at an all-time high?</p><p>7. Why are people still migrating?</p><p>8. Why have school buildings not been constructed?</p><p>9. Why industries have not been set up?</p><p>10.

If anyone has to be held responsible for migration to poor health services to unemployment to poor education in Bihar, it is the RJD regime headed by your parents,” said the JD(U) chief spokesperson.</p><p>Miffed at the JD(U) response, the RJD hit back at the Nitish’s aide and said Tejashwi remained the only hope for the youth of Bihar. “Tejashwi stands for T: Truthful, E: Empowerment, J: Justice doer, A: Authentic, S: Strong, H: Honest, W: Warrior, I: Intelligent and Idealistic,” replied RJD spokesperson Shakti Yadav, while expanding each and every letter of the name of Lalu’s heir apparent.</p>
