Vote Modi ko na deb, to ka tohar ko deb?: Viral video of old woman from Bihar that caught PM Modi’s attention
Bihar Election: PM Modi also sought to appeal to Bihari sensitivities by speaking about ''chhath'' puja, saying their "son" will ensure that kitchen fires are kept burning despite the COVID pandemic.
New Delhi: PM Modi while addressing a rally in Bihar’s Chapra today talked about an old lady who listed out her reasons to vote for the Modi government in one breath.
Speaking about a viral video clip, PM Modi narrates how a reporter asked an old lady why she would vote for the NDA government. “Modi gave us taps, lines, electricity. Modi gave us quota, ration, pension. Modi gave us gas. Why won’t we vote for Modi?” The old lady shuts that person up with these valid reasons
She further went on to lash out on Lalu Yadav and using creative euphemism explained how she would crush Lalu Yadav’s power. She said, “ललुआ के अलुआ छीन के बिग देब हम। (I will peel off Lalu’s aalu). “

“I was impressed when the woman fluently spoke about the welfare measures undertaken by our government and hurled the counter question when Modi has done so much for us, do you expect us to vote for you and not for him? She expressed the sentiment shared by most voters of Bihar,” Modi said.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi today promised that there will be ample arrangements for the upcoming Chhatth Puja amidst the Covid-19 pandemic.
PM Modi talked about the arrangements the central government has made during the pandemic to ensure the poor in India are taken care of as the Chinese.
In a bid to strike a chord with the state”s women voters, the prime minister said, “My mothers need not worry about whether they would be able to afford Chhath festivities a few weeks from now. Do remember this son of yours is sitting in Delhi. He will take care of all your needs”.
Modi also raked up the issue of “ill treatment and insult” to former union minister Raghuvansh Prasad Singh by the family of RJD supremo Lalu Prasad which ultimately led to the founding member quitting the party a day before his death.
Although Singh, a hugely respected leader, belonged to the neighboring Vaishali district, the treatment meted out to him is said to have angered his fellow Rajputs who have a sizeable presence in Chapra.
Harping on the alleged lawlessness under the Lalu- Rabri governments, Modi referred to the folklore about “lakadsunghwa”, a mysterious child-lifter against whom parents used to warn their children to prevent them from stepping out of homes after dark.
