Bihar polls: Rahul Gandhi to address joint rally with Tejashwi on October 29
Oct-27-2025

The Leader of Opposition and senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi jointly address a public meeting with Bihar's Leader of Opposition Tejaswi Yadav on October 29 in support of the Grand Alliance-supported candidates. The duo will hold a joint rally in Muzaffarpur and Darbhanga.

Recently, Rahul Gandhi slammed the Centre over train arrangements during the festive season. He particularly highlighted the hardships faced by migrant workers travelling to Bihar for the Chhath festival. Pointing out overcrowding in trains, with some operating at 200 per cent capacity, Gandhi questioned the NDA government over its promise of 12,000 special trains to manage the festive rush. Targeting the NDA government, Gandhi said that these people are not helpless travellers but are ‘living proof’ of the NDA's deceptive policies and intentions.

Earlier on Sunday, RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav took a dig at Prime Minister Narendra Modi ahead of his visit to poll-bound Bihar, alleging that PM Modi is ‘coming to cheat Bihar.’ The former Deputy Chief Minister said that mere visits and rallies by the Prime Minister would not change the reality on the ground. Tejashwi also questioned the PM’s development record and demanded transparency in central allocations to Bihar.

PM Narendra Modi is scheduled to visit Bihar on October 30 as part of the BJP's campaign for Assembly elections to attend two programmes in Muzaffarpur and Chhapra, BJP state president Dilip Jaiswal confirmed on Saturday.

Polling for all 243 assembly constituencies will be held on November 6 and 11, with counting scheduled for November 14.
