‘Bihar received only around 2 lakh crore during UPA’
“When the Congress and RJD government were at the centre, Bihar received only around 2 lakh crore rupees during the 10 years of UPA. In other words, these people were taking revenge on Nitish Ji’s government. In 2014, you gave me the opportunity to serve at the centre. After coming to the centre, I also put an end to the old politics of taking revenge on Bihar. In the last 10 years, during the 10 years of NDA, the amount given for Bihar’s development is many times more than before,” PM Modi stated in Bihar, which will go to polls later this year.
“When Bihar moves forward, then the country will move forward; Bihar will only move forward when its youths will move forward,” PM Modi said.
‘A new future for Bihar will also be created’
Stressing the significance of Bihar during the freedom struggle, PM Modi said, “This land is the land of Champaran. This land has made history. This land of the freedom movement showed Gandhiji a new direction. Now, inspired by this very land, a new future for Bihar will also be created. Today, projects worth more than 7 thousand crore rupees were inaugurated and their foundation stones were laid from here. I extend my heartfelt congratulations to all of you and all the people of Bihar for these development projects.”
