Purnea (PTI): Congress leader Rahul Gandhi on Thursday alleged that the BJP will try to “steal votes” in the Bihar assembly polls with all its might, and it is the responsibility of the youth to act against it.

Addressing a poll rally here, Gandhi claimed that the BJP was winning elections everywhere by “stealing votes”.

“We have shown the entire world that the BJP and the Election Commission have stolen the Haryana election. I am sure that they would try to steal votes in Bihar, too.

“It is the responsibility of Bihar’s youth to put a stop to this, and save the Constitution... All of you need to be cautious at the polling booths,” the former Congress president said.

Gandhi also alleged that Prime Minister Narendra Modi wants a “rule of billionaires where the youth remain jobless”.

At another rally in Araria, Gandhi accused Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah of imposing ‘jungle raj’ in the country.

“Nitish Kumar talks about ‘jungle raj’ in Bihar... But, it is the PM and Amit Shah who have imposed ‘jungle raj’ in Delhi, in the entire country, which is witnessing the rule of the ED, CBI, IT, hatred and unemployment. This is the true ‘jungle raj’,” he asserted.

Gandhi also alleged that the prime minister was spreading hatred among people in Bihar and in the country.

“He is creating rift among the people on the basis of caste and religion,” the Rae Bareli MP claimed.

Criticising Kumar, the Leader of the Opposition in Lok Sabha accused the CM of turning the state's youth into labourers.

According to the police, Mallikarjuna had failed the PSI examination twice and later falsely projected himself as a PSI. He allegedly conducted photo shoots in his hometown, Siraguppa, wearing a police uniform, baton, cap, and shoes, claiming to be serving as a PSI in Bengaluru.

On December 7, the four accused allegedly went to the house of Naveen in the Vidyaranyapura limits, threatened him with a stick and an iron rod, and claimed they had information that he was selling ganja. Under the pretext of searching, they allegedly extorted ₹87,000 through bank transfer, ₹53,000 in cash kept in the house, and ₹2,000 from his wallet.

Following Naveen’s complaint, Vidyaranyapura police registered a case and launched an operation, leading to the arrest of all four accused. Police have seized ₹45,000 in cash and the car used to commit the crime.
Further investigation is underway.
