Amit Shah Slams RJD’s “Jungle Raj,” Urges NDA Support in Muzaffarpur Rally
Muzaffarpur, Bihar – Union Home Minister Amit Shah launched a blistering attack on the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) at a packed rally in Muzaffarpur, calling on voters to back the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) to prevent a return to what he termed RJD’s “Jungle Raj.” The BJP leader accused the opposition party of fostering lawlessness and corruption during its past rule in Bihar.
