Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on Sunday drew a parallel between Prime Minister Narendra Modi's speeches about Bihar and the Nazi ideology.
"An associate of Hitler had said that if you repeat a lie 100 times, it is accepted as the truth. This is what the Prime Minister has been doing so far," said Kumar.
Nitish Kumar lashed out at the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for creating a positive image of itself in the nation by using this technique. An example of the same being the idea of a 'Modi wave' during the 2014 General Elections.
Also, criticising Prime Minister Narendra Modi for repackaging Rs 1.08 lakh crore, Kumar said, "Prime Minister Narendra Modi has announced Rs 1.25 lakh crore package. I want to expose him, and say that out of the entire package, Rs 1.08 lakh crore is old."
Kumar also shared dais with RJD chief Lalu Yadav, JD (U) national president Sharad Yadav, brother of Samajwadi Party supremo Mulayam Singh Yadav, Shivpal Singh Yadav and Congress president Sonia Gandhi at Swabhiman Rally here today.
