Bihar ke upmukhyamatri itne ghotalon mein phanse hue hain par koi karyawahi ya jaanch nahi ho rahi hai. Ab humein shanka hai ki iss jeet ke baad UP aur Bihar mein jo Modi ji, Amit Shah, ED aur CBI karyawahi karne mein aur tez ho jaayenge: Tejashwi Yadav, RJD pic.twitter.com/GhY0huBDM6
BJP should stop working for its face value & instead put in efforts to work for the people. That's the only way in which they can improve or else they will face the same result in the 2019 elections as they have in this bypoll: Jitan Ram Manjhi on #Biharbypoll results pic.twitter.com/eqmqgjZlTR
आज के उपचुनावों में जीतने वाले उम्मीदवारों को बधाई।
नतीजों से स्पष्ट है कि मतदाताओं में भाजपा के प्रति बहुत क्रोध है और वो उस गैर भाजपाई उम्मीदवार के लिए वोट करेंगे जिसके जीतने की संभावना सबसे ज़्यादा हो।
कांग्रेस यूपी में नवनिर्माण के लिए तत्पर है, ये रातों रात नहीं होगा।
