Unveiling the shocking truth behind #Bihar's notorious nickname, #JungleRaaj. Brace yourself for a riveting thread 👇👇 that delves into the tumultuous history.
#JungleRaaj, the dark legacy of @laluprasadrjd 's 15-year rule in Bihar, where our beloved state Bihar plummeted to the rung bottom of economic and social rankings. Law and order crumbled, kidnappings soared, and gangsters turned politicians thrived.
August 5, 1997, the fateful day when during a hearing, #Patna High Court declared, '#Bihar me sarkar nahi, Bihar me jangal raaj hai.' A moment of truth that exposed a state plagued by lawlessness, where progress was devoured by chaos.
Only one industry thrived unapologetically, kidnapping. Tales of terror echoed as people were snatched in broad daylight and held captive until hefty ransoms were paid. Shocking #statistics reveal 32,085 reported #kidnapping cases from 1992 to 2004.
Under Lalu’s @RJDforIndia regime, #Bihar witnessed a chilling wave of murders. From 2001-2005, a total of 18,189 lives were lost. The violence during 1990-2000 remains unfathomable, with nearly 20,000 murders in just 5 years. A horrifying testament to an era of bloodshed.
In an era of fear, gangsters turned politicians held Bihar hostage. #Shahabuddin, an RJD backed murderer from #Siwan, evaded justice with #Lalu's support. Reetlal Yadav wreaked havoc in #Patna. Every Bihari lived in constant dread, afraid of their kidnapping and murder.
Businessmen in Bihar lived in the shadow of #Rangdaari—a monthly tax to appease #Lalu's goons. Failure to pay Rangdaari meant destruction or #kidnapping. Even #construction companies faced extortion. Those who dared to resist paid with their lives. A chilling tale of fear.
#Bihar's roads and #infrastructure crumbled, and electricity was a luxury. Corruption scandals like Chara Ghotala and #Railway Tender Ghotala stained his legacy. Amassing wealth beyond his means, #Lalu's questionable assets raised eyebrows. A period of decay and neglect.
In an extravagant display of power, #Lalu's daughter's wedding became a looting spree. #SadhuYadav, Lalu’s dreaded brother-in-law, seized over 100 cars from various showrooms. With state funds, Lalu splurged 100 crores while government employees struggled for salaries.
Amidst the lingering shadows of Jungle Raaj, Bihar awaits its much-needed redemption. #Nitish & #TejashwiYadav government's efforts have fallen drastically short in improving Bihar. Let's make #Bihar glorious again. #abkibaarekalavyakisarkaar #BRPParty
#बिहार के कुख्यात उपनाम, #JungleRaaj के पीछे चौंकाने वाला सच का खुलासा। उथल-पुथल भरे इतिहास की पड़ताल करने वाले एक दिलचस्प खुलासे के लिए खुद को तैयार कर लें।

#JungleRaaj, बिहार में @laluprasadrjd के 15 साल के शासन की काली विरासत, जहां हमारा प्यारा राज्य बिहार आर्थिक और सामाजिक… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
