News India Live, Digital Desk: As the election temperature in Bihar is rising, the statements of the leaders are also becoming sharp. Now BJP’s firebrand leader, MP and Bhojpuri superstar Manoj Tiwari has also jumped into this war of words. In his well-known style, he has taken a dig at the Grand Alliance in a way that hits straight to the heart. What’s more, he has also given a ‘loving’ warning to another big Bhojpuri star, Khesari Lal Yadav, to stay away from politics. ’56 inch chest’ vs ‘long tongue’ While addressing an election rally in Bihar, Manoj Tiwari compared the NDA and the Grand Alliance in a very dramatic manner. He said, “We NDA people are people with 56 inches chest. Our heart is also 56 inches. We have built Ram temple, removed Article 370 from Kashmir. And on the other side are those people (grand alliance) who only have long tongues.” Manoj Tiwari’s signal was clear. He said that BJP and NDA do whatever they say, whereas the opposition only makes talk, they neither have any leader nor any policy. He said that the Grand Alliance is such a scattered marriage procession which has no groom. Open ‘warning’ given to Khesari Lal Yadav. A major turn in this election battle came when Manoj Tiwari targeted another star of his own field, Khesari Lal Yadav. Let us tell you that Khesari Lal Yadav is campaigning vigorously for RJD in this election. Giving advice to Khesari, Manoj Tiwari said, “Khesari is an artist, he should remain an artist. RJD has a habit of using and throwing away. There is no respect for artists in the party for which he is campaigning.” Manoj Tiwari further said, “I would tell Khesari not to get misled by anyone. Come. He is a great singer, we all respect his art. But they should remember that by following this path, their condition may become like others. There will be no benefit in repenting later.” This statement is, in a way, an open warning from Manoj Tiwari to Khesari Lal that he should keep himself away from this quagmire of politics, otherwise both his career and his respect can be at stake. It is clear that in the Bihar elections now only Not just political parties, but even Bhojpuri stars have come face to face. On one hand, Manoj Tiwari has become the ‘poster boy’ of BJP, while on the other hand, Khesari Lal is seeking votes for Tejashwi Yadav. This ‘war of stars’ is making Bihar elections even more interesting
