NEW DELHI: Former deputy chief minister and RJD leader

Tejashwi Yadav

on Thursday accused BJP of engaging in voter bribery in Bihar ahead of second phase of the Lok Sabha elections.

Yadav claimed that BJP chief

JP Nadda

brought five bags of cash with him during his recent visit to distribute among voters.

"I have received news that he (BJP chief JP Nadda) has brought several bags with him.

He is distributing them at places where elections are taking place," Tejashwi said while speaking to reporters.

"Get this checked, the allegations are true. I am not lying. Agencies are helping him openly. He is coming from Delhi and bringing five bags with him," he added.

Tejashwi also criticized

Prime Minister Narendra Modi

over his recent comments about the Congress party's alleged intentions to take away people's gold and property. Yadav pointed out that due to high inflation, women are struggling to afford gold, including mangalsutras.

"Just look at the price of gold these days, women cannot even afford a mangalsutra today and they are talking about snatching it away," he said.

Tejashwi's comment was in response to PM Modi's speech, where the Prime Minister said, "When they (Congress) were in government, they said that Muslims have the first right over India's resources. So, they will distribute this wealth (property and gold) among those having more children, among illegal immigrants...this Urban Naxal thinking won't even spare your Mangalsutra."

Tejashwi Yadav posted a video on X, posing several questions to the Prime Minister. He asked, "I want to ask Prime Minister Modi, why do you want to end the Constitution and democracy? Why do you want to snatch away the reservation and jobs of Dalits, backwards, deprived and poor? Why do you want to make the poor poorer and the rich richer? Bihar gave you 39 seats, but what did you give to Bihar in 10 years? Why don't you come to Bihar and talk about work?"
