Tejashwi Yadav promises for economic justice:

Track record of delivering promises:
Defending the credibility of his party, Yadav cited the achievements of the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) during its previous tenure.
“We have a proven track record. During our 17 months in power, we provided 5 lakh jobs and created 3 lakh additional positions in various departments,” he said.
Tejashwi Yadav alleged that the land survey initiative introduced by the Nitish Kumar government has led to widespread corruption. “The survey has increased bribery cases in government departments, reflecting a lack of transparency and governance,” he stated.
Tejashwi Yadav’s proposals, including welfare schemes and measures to tackle unemployment and corruption, aim to present his party as a credible alternative to the current administration.
