"The Prime Minister had promised to usher in "achche din" to the people but he could not deliver it. All those promises have not materialised though they were heavily publicized through banners and hoardings at the time of general elections last year," he said.
The Samajwadi Party is contesting the Bihar Assembly poll after forming a third front with five other regional parties following its exit from the grand alliance of the RJD, JD(U) and Congress to protest against allotment of mere five seats.
