Patna: In view of assembly elections, all the parties are busy campaigning vigorously. In such a situation, many big election rallies are going to be held in the state on the last day of campaigning for the first phase. Meanwhile, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) veteran leader and deputy CM Sushil Modi has accused Tejashwi Yadav of manipulating the new generation, giving information about the incidents of violence during the RJD rule.

Sushil Modi has said that the RJD wants to seize the power of the state by hiding its dark past. That is why Lalu-Rabri's pictures have been removed from RJD posters. The opposition has forgotten the violence of its time. Bihar deputy CM said that in the total nine elections of Lok Sabha, Vidhan Sabha and Panchayat from 1990 to 2004 under RJD rule, 641 people died due to violence. 61 people were also killed during the 2000 assembly elections.

Sushil Modi said that 87 people in 1990 and 76 in 1999 were exposed to electoral violence. During the RJD government, 196 people lost their lives in the 2001 Panchayat elections. In the 1998 Lok Sabha elections, two dozen RJD ministers and MLAs were booked for booth robbery, violence and obstructing voting. Lalu Prasad was contesting from Chhapra in 2004, where the election had to be cancelled.
