“BJP workers and leaders work 24x7…We are not part-time politicians like Rahul Gandhi. During the assembly elections, he came to Bihar and went abroad once the elections got over. He went to Germany when the parliament sessions were underway, and criticised the Indian government there," he claimed.

Nabin also alleged, "When he (Rahul Gandhi) is in India, he abuses the constitutional bodies like the Election Commission of India. He criticises the Supreme Court. The time has arrived to punish such politicians."

Nabin, who took charge of the BJP's national working president on December 15, asserted that the people of Bihar have punished them in the recent assembly elections.

"Our party flag (BJP) will fly high in the upcoming assembly polls of West Bengal and Kerala, where part-time politicians like Rahul Gandhi will be punished," he said.

In a veiled attack on RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav, Nabin claimed, "One part-time politician, who is not seen in assembly sessions and leaves India when he faces defeat in polls."
