We have come here with three point agenda of power, water, infrastructure, education for youth, and health facilities for elders. People of Bihar are questioning Nitish and Lalu," Modi said.
He slammed Nitish Kumar and Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) supremo Lalu Prasad over their election rallies.

Modi is scheduled to address 17 rallies over the next six days in Bihar starting this Sunday.
