Deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav has been constantly pressed on his election pledge of 10 lakh employment made during the 2020 assembly elections while in opposition. The youthful RJD leader had previously claimed that the Chief Minister had approved of his job-creation pledge.
Tejashwi Yadav, vindicated by the Chief Minister's explicit public pronouncement on his pledge, stated that the "huge announcement" made by the Chief Minister is the "true subject" that the media should focus on, and that the two parties will work together to make it happen.
