Patna, April 16: Bihar’s opposition RJD wrested the Bochahan assembly seat from the ruling NDA on Saturday, with its candidate defeating the BJP nominee by over 36,000 votes. Tejashwi Yadav, the leader of the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), praised the people after RJD’s Amar Kumar Paswan defeated BJP’s Baby Kumari by over 36,000 votes in the Bochahan Assembly by-poll on Saturday.
Taking a shot at the NDA, the RJD leader claimed that the people had defeated the parties in power in Bihar’s double-engine government because of their “anti-people” policies and arrogance.
“Hearty thanks to the public owners of Bochahan. People suffering from unemployment, inflation, and poor education, health, agriculture, and law and order in the assembly by-elections have done a just job of defeating the anti-people policies and arrogance of the four parties involved in the double engine government,” he tweeted.
Notably, the counting of the votes began at 8 am. The by-election was held on April 12.
