Title: Without PM Modi & CM Nitish, Bihar can’t progress: Dy CM Samrat
As the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) completes 11 years of rule at the Centre, Bihar Deputy Chief Minister, Tejashwi Prasad Yadav, has credited Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister Nitish Kumar for the state’s remarkable development. Samrat Choudhary, the Deputy CM, made these remarks while addressing a gathering recently, emphasizing that without the leadership of these two stalwarts, Bihar would not have progressed as it has.
In a bold statement, Choudhary claimed that Prime Minister Modi has contributed significantly to Bihar’s development, mentioning that around ₹15 lakh crore has been invested in the state during his tenure. He went on to say that without the guidance and vision of PM Modi and CM Nitish Kumar, Bihar would be lagging behind, and the state would be vulnerable to political opportunists who are waiting to seize power.
The Deputy CM’s comments have sparked a heated debate, with many opposing his views and arguing that the state’s development is not solely dependent on the leadership of PM Modi and CM Nitish Kumar. However, Choudhary is unwavering in his stance, challenging Opposition parties to deny the progress that Bihar has made under the NDA regime.
Bihar’s Development Story
Bihar has indeed undergone a significant transformation since the NDA came to power in 2017. The state has witnessed unprecedented growth, with significant improvements in infrastructure, healthcare, and education sectors. The government’s initiatives, such as the creation of the Bihar State Health Society, the Bihar Education Project Council, and the Bihar Infrastructure Development Corporation, have contributed significantly to the state’s development.
One of the most notable achievements of the NDA government has been the construction of the Kosi Mahasetu, a critical project that has helped to mitigate the impact of floods in the state. The government has also invested heavily in the development of roads, highways, and national highways, connecting the state to other parts of the country.
Healthcare in Bihar has also seen significant improvements, with the state government’s commitment to increasing the number of medical colleges and hospitals. The state has also made significant strides in education, with the introduction of the ‘Bihar Education Policy 2016’, which aims to provide quality education to all students, regardless of their socio-economic background.
Challenges and Criticisms
While the NDA government has achieved significant milestones, Bihar still faces numerous challenges. The state continues to struggle with issues such as poverty, unemployment, and corruption. The government has also faced criticism for its handling of issues such as law and order, with many calling for greater accountability and transparency.
The Opposition parties, in particular, have been vocal in their criticism of the government’s handling of issues such as corruption and governance. They have accused the government of being insensitive to the needs of the people and of prioritizing the interests of big business over those of the common man.
The Role of PM Modi and CM Nitish Kumar
So, what role have PM Modi and CM Nitish Kumar played in Bihar’s development? Choudhary is adamant that their leadership has been instrumental in the state’s progress, citing their vision, guidance, and commitment to development as the driving forces behind Bihar’s growth.
PM Modi’s initiatives, such as the ‘Make in India’ and ‘Swachh Bharat’ campaigns, have had a significant impact on the state’s development. The Prime Minister’s emphasis on infrastructure development, healthcare, and education has helped to create a conducive environment for investment and growth.
CM Nitish Kumar’s leadership has also been instrumental in Bihar’s development. His commitment to good governance, transparency, and accountability has helped to create a sense of confidence among investors and residents alike. His initiatives, such as the ‘Jal Jeevan Mission’ and the ‘Bihar State Health Society’, have helped to improve healthcare and sanitation in the state.
Conclusion
As Bihar celebrates 11 years of NDA rule at the Centre, Deputy Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary’s remarks have sparked a heated debate about the state’s development. While there are valid criticisms of the government’s handling of issues such as corruption and governance, it is undeniable that PM Modi and CM Nitish Kumar have played a significant role in Bihar’s progress.
Their vision, guidance, and commitment to development have helped to create a conducive environment for growth and investment. As Bihar looks to the future, it is essential that the state continues to build on the progress made under the NDA regime, addressing the challenges and criticisms that it faces.
