00:30You had a meeting with Vinod Tawde.

00:33Can you tell us about that?

00:37Yes, it was a very wide range in the past.

00:42What is happening in Bihar?

00:44What is happening now?

00:45What is the nature of the earth?

00:47I am serving my country, my country, and my country.

00:54But what is the vision of it?

00:58It is a very good conversation.

01:03And Meithali, people tend to judge you about your age.

01:08People say, how do you handle your age?

01:11How do you handle your age?

01:12How do you think about it?

01:13What do you think about it?

01:15The question is that when I was born, I got a chance to hear.

01:20I got a lot of things that have been heard from me.

01:22I have heard many things that have been negatively affected me.

01:25But now, you cannot believe that.

01:27The first time I have been doing this, that in the past four days,

01:30If I have seen many negative comments,

01:33I will not have to be able to prevent me from a bad way.

01:37Even if I have to be able to answer them,

01:39I want to be able to stand in front of them.

01:41I will not have to be able to prevent me from any other way.

01:45I will not have to be able to stand in front of them.

01:47I know that your age is less than 30.

01:49But in a hypothetical situation,

01:51If you get a Rajya Sabha seat,

01:53Will you choose that?

01:55Or do you like to go to Vidhan Sabha?

01:58I will not have to be able to stand in front of them.

02:02I know that 30 people should be at least.

02:06I have to be able to stand in front of them.

02:08I have to be able to stand in front of them.

02:10I am not aware of them.

02:12If you are the one thing,

02:14If you are the one thing,

02:16I am the one thing that I am giving you,

02:18how can I imagine?

02:20Yes, many people are good and good.

02:23I have to be able to manage them.

02:25How can I manage them?

02:27I have to be able to stand in front of them.

02:29I have to be able to stand in front of them.

02:30I have to be able to stand in front of them.

02:31I have to be able to stand in front of them.

02:34I won't let anybody down.

02:36I will be able to stand in front of them.

02:39Mitali, you have been the brand ambassador of the elections.

02:43In 2024,

02:44the election commission has become a brand ambassador.

02:47After that,

02:48you are on the right side of elections.

02:51Do you see an opportunity in this?

02:54Or is there any other motivation?

02:56What is the motivation in it?

02:58Maybe I have to be able to stand in front of them?

03:01What I have to understand is that

03:03what I am thinking is that

03:05what is happening in my mind

03:07is going on to you.

03:08Then,

03:09after the day of the 1.5 months,

03:10I went in the front of the entire Bihar

03:12to the election commission,

03:13I had campaigned.

03:14The decision for the election commission

03:16to make me vote.

03:17So, Methali, you've been traveling across Bihar, you've spoken to different people.

03:36From your account, who will be the next Chief Minister of Bihar?

03:41This is a hypothetical question.

03:44I support the NDA, because the changes I've heard from my parents about how many problems were left behind.

03:56But over the period of time, Bihar has changed so quickly.

04:00So, I want to say that something is good.

04:02Bihar is good for this, I just want to say that I don't want to say that I don't want to say that.

04:07You said that you wanted to choose the election when you were Prime Minister.

04:10Did you talk to them about the election when you were the last 10-15 days?

04:13No, I didn't talk to them about the election.

04:17This election was the last 10-15 days.

04:22Before that, there was no knowledge to me.

04:25There was no love.

04:27The other thing, I was like, I was trying to say that, I was trying to say that, I was trying to say that my parents went through himself.

04:37I thought that everything was a little bit like that.

04:40I was trying to say that I would be a little bit.

04:42But when I was open to this conversation, I felt that I was ready.

04:47and I'm ready.

04:53who will become the Chief Minister?

04:55Who will become the Chief Minister?

04:57What is your choice?

05:07the whole journey is going to happen

05:09that my whole journey,

05:11I've come to meet everyone.
