    NEW DELHI: Lok Janshakti Party (Ram Vilas) chief Chirag Paswan on Sunday announced that he will contest the upcoming assembly elections in Bihar “for the sake of a better future of Bihar”.Chirag, who is also a minister at the Centre, said, “People have been asking me whether Chirag Paswan will contest the assembly elections. I want to announce from Saran that yes, Chirag Paswan will contest the elections for the sake of a better future of Bihar.”“I will contest the election for the people of Bihar, for my brothers, mothers, for my sisters. We will build a system in Bihar that will truly take the state forward on the path of development. I will realise the dreams of my father and work for ‘Bihar first, Bihari first’. I will live and die for Bihar and its people,” he added.Unlike the rest of the parties in the NDA camp, Chirag also supported the domicile policy for government jobs in the state claiming ” this has been a long-standing demand of job seekers.”“For the sake of the youth of Bihar, I am in support of the introduction of a domicile policy in government jobs. This has been a long-standing demand of job seekers,” Chirag said.“I must inform you that the domicile policy was introduced in 2006, but it was withdrawn by the opposition parties when they came to power. The RJD and Congress never think about the betterment of the youth of the state. They always mislead people. If they come to power, they will snatch over half of your wealth via inheritance tax,” he added.Earlier, leader of opposition Tejashwi Yadav also promised per cent domicile” if the Mahagathbandhan came to power in the state after the elections.However, Nitish Kumar government has ruled out the possibility of introduction of a domicile policy, claiming that any such move would be against the Constitution.
