Referring to Lalu Yadav, Kumar said, "When they were given time, they did nothing during their tenure. The state of roads, schools and the condition of Scheduled Tribes and Schedule Castes in their tenure are visible to all. We have worked for the Schedule castes, STs and for the Backward Classes.

There were so many people who migrated from the state due to unemployment."

Kumar said, "We have given reservation to women in the Bihar police. All the recruitments, all developments are in front of everyone. We are working for development and providing employment. For the education of girls, we gave an inter-school to every panchayat."
