He alleged that the state government had promised to provide five lakh jobs to the youth but "cheated" them.

“The women are not safe in Jharkhand. Corruption and loot are on the rise. To make Jharkhand free from loot and corruption, the BJP-led government is needed here,” Paswan said.

He claimed that a double-engine government can ensure Jharkhand's fast development.

The term “double engine” is used by NDA leaders to refer to the alliance being in power at the Centre as well as in a state.
