PM Modi In Bihar

Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurates and lays the foundation stone of several development projects worth over Rs. 48,520 crores in Bihar on Friday.

While addressing a gathering, PM Modi took a swipe at the Opposition party in the state and said that for decades, the Dalits, backwards classes, and tribals did not even have toilets. 

“Those who cheated Bihar the most, under whose rule the poor and deprived had to leave Bihar, today the same people are telling lies of social justice. For decades, the Dalits, backwards classes, and tribals did not even have toilets… They were not even allowed to enter banks… Was this plight, pain, and suffering of the people of Bihar the social justice of Congress and RJD?” the Prime Minister said. 

He added that Congress and the RJD used to bring foreigners to Bihar to show them the poverty in the state. 

“Now, when Dalits, the deprived and the backwards society, have left Congress because of its sins, they are remembering social justice to save their existence. The country saw a new dawn of social justice in the era of NDA,” the PM said. 

On the other hand, BJP leader Mahachandra Prasad Singh has been appointed as Chairman of the Bihar State Commission for the Development of Upper Castes

Rajeev Ranjan Prasad, JDU National Spokesperson, has been appointed as Vice Chairman.
