Asserting that development is the solution to all problems, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) president Amit Shah on Thursday urged the voters in Bihar to bring his party to power so that 'jungle raj' in the state comes to an end.

"Poverty does not have any caste or creed. If you want to eradicate poverty, you must form BJP's government in Bihar," Shah said while addressing a rally here.

"You tell me if Nitish Kumar and Lalu come to power in Bihar then will it bring the 'jungle raj' or not?" he added.

He further said that solution to all the problems of Bihar lies with development.

"If you want development you must form NDA's government under Modiji's leadership. Modi's face has been imprinted in the heart of Bihar," he added.

The BJP today undertook a 'Rath Yatra' ahead of the upcoming Bihar Assembly elections.

Calling it the 'Parivartan Rath yatra', the BJP's high-tech election mobiles aim to reach out to the 6.5 crore electorate through one lakh assembly meetings in 100 days to spread the message of change.
