"We back Nitish-ji fully. He has shown that he can develop Bihar and we will support him. We want to congratulate everyone," he said.

"You have to now press the accelerator, else people will throw you out of the car," said Gandhi.
"You go everywhere in the world, go to instead the villages and among the youth and embrace them," he said.
