Should they not speak on these issues?

Nitish Kumar has attacked the opposition RJD patriarch Lalu Prasad Yadav and his son Tejashwi Yadav before winding down the campaign for the first round of voting on.

He said, “Does anyone care? They have eight-nine children. They have no faith in their daughters. After so many daughters, they had a son. You all can see – this is the kind of Bihar they want to make.”

Tejaswi Yadav, the leader of the opposition said that Nitish Kumar is ‘mentally and physically tired’ and that even his insults were “blessings” for him.
