After 16 days of campaigning across Bihar, Rahul Gandhi’s “Voter Rights Yatra” concluded in Patna, marking a fiery end with sharp political rhetoric. Speaking at the closing rally, Rahul warned the BJP, saying, “Hydrogen bomb is bigger than atom bomb — and it’s coming.” He added that after this political “blast,” Prime Minister Narendra Modi won’t be able to show his face to the country. The show, Mahadangal, aired on ABP News, captured how the opposition’s battle over the Special Summary Revision (SIR) and alleged “vote theft” has now escalated into a war of words. Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge said Nitish Kumar would be thrown away like “garbage” by the BJP, while Tejashwi Yadav went a step further, calling him the “Bhishma Pitamah of moral corruption.” The BJP and JD(U) quickly countered. BJP leaders mocked Rahul’s “hydrogen bomb” comment, asking what it has to do with elections, while JD(U) predicted Bihar voters will answer Tejashwi’s abusive remarks at the ballot box. With elections approaching, key questions remain: Will the issue of voter roll manipulation impact voters? Or will traditional concerns like unemployment, migration, and law and order dominate the narrative?
