Bihar youth won't be misled now

"Be it the Champaran Satyagraha or the revolution for social justice - Bihar has always taken concrete steps against injustice. Today, that history calls again - against attacks on the Constitution, against favoritism and discrimination, and in support of economic and social justice," he announced on X. "Bihar youth won't be misled now or bow down before anyone. They will move together and build a new future for themselves," he said.
