"Pack of Lies"; Says Rabri about NDA Report Card
Patna: Nov. 24, 2007
 Former Chief Minister and the leader of the Opposition in the Bihar Assembly Rabri Devi, on Saturday, dismissed the NDA report card presented by Chief Minister Nitish Kumar as a 'bundle of lies only meant to defraud the people of Bihar'.
Releasing a booklet of its own 'Sushashan ki Khul Gai Pole, Chahey Pito Jitna Dhol' that obviously had fingerprints of Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) chief and Railway Minister Lalu Prasad Yadav all over it, Rabri Devi said that Nitish' slogan of good governance would meet the same fate as the former Prime Minister and NDA leader Atal Bihari Vajpayee.
 "This government is anti-people, anti-farmers, and anti-dalits. It has failed on all fronts and has created new opportunities for corrupt government bureaucrats. It talks about development but would not even spend money given to it by the Central government. It talks about reducing crime in Bihar but kidnapping under the NDA government has gone up, murders are on rise and the state still remains number one in the nation when it comes to crime," Rabri Devi said.
The RJD leader also gave a failing grade to the NDA government on providing relief to the flood victims in Bihar.
"The NDA government would be forever known for its failure to provide relief to the flood victims on time. When the entire state was reeling under the impact of flood, the Chief Minister and his lieutenants were cooling off in Mauritius," she said.
Rabri Devi was accompanied by her trusted men including Abdul Bari Siddiqui, Shyam Rajak, Ram Kripal Yadav, Shakeel Ahmed Khan, Ghulam Gaus, and other RJD leaders.
