Prasad, who is from Bihar, could be seen addressing the Poorvanchali voters living in the slum clusters in Bhojpuri. 'Aap sabko namaskaar. Aur jo Bihar ke log baithal ba, unka pranaam karale ,' he said, establishing an instant rapport with his audience. Hundreds of men and women, mostly daily wage labourers living in the area, had finished their work early to listen to the Bihari Babu and Bhojpuri singer Sharmila Pandey, who was present there too.
The BJP leader took potshots at Congress for the rising food prices and poor governance at the Centre and in the state. "I have been a minister in the NDA government led by Atal Bihari Vajpayee. The prices of essential commodities, food and vegetables were within the reach of the common man," Prasad said.
" Ye (Congress party) jinne jata, luta ta. Hamar Bihar ke bhai behan sun la, Sonia ji ke raj mein jamin, aasman aur patal maan bhi ghotala ba (This Congress party loots people wherever it goes. My fellow Biharis, listen, in Sonia's rule, there is scam on earth (CWG), below (coal scam) and even in the skies (2G)," he said. He then asked for a second-term for the sitting MLA from BJP, Karan Singh Tanwar. "If BJP comes to power, he will be a minister. And the problems of water, power and road will be addressed," Prasad added.
He also visited the house of a party worker in Tilak Nagar to find out about poll preparations and enthuse the cadre before attending another public meeting in the area. "When in field, I am just another grassroot worker of the party. I am proud of my Bihari origin and love to interact with fellowmen in Bhojpuri," he said.
BJP, which has been out of power in Delhi for 15 years, is sparing no efforts to win this time. Apart from its poster boy, Narendra Modi, several of its leaders with strong affiliation to a particular community, such as Poorvanchalis, are campaigning extensively. Prasad says that he, along with other heavyweights from Bihar, for example Rajiv Pratap Rudy, will be attending three to four public meetings daily.
Delhi has about 40 lakh Poorvanchali voters spread across the various assembly constituencies, majority of which fall in the trans-Yamuna areas. Sources said BJP leaders from Bihar, including Sushil Modi, C P Thakur, Giriraj Singh and the UP BJP's in-charge Amit Shah, are campaigning too.
