What Bihar Says........................

The Bihar Verdict may be in favour of Nitish Kumar,but actually it state many politcal,social and psychological facts together. Bihar is a state which I have seen during a family function in 1985 and 1987.It was then ruled by Congress Government and there was no glimpse of Lalu and Nitish in Bihar or National politics. However I traveeled to Gopal Ganz and East Champaran but even at that time it was hard to believe that Bihar was part of India. There were so many things which no one would wish to recall. Roads,Electicity, Transport and more over the crime.



I can not forget about a Bahubali politician of Gopal Ganz--Kali Pandey who however fought as an independent candidate but his name was enough to terrorise the voters of district. We travelled in a UP govt bus up to Gorakh pur and then took a Gopal Ganz bound bus of Bihar Govt. We left the bus in Siwan and there after I can tell you that its better to watch Shool of Manoj Bajpai to describe the situation.The district hardly had any facility which can give you any pride to say ..ok I may feel little comfrt in Bihar.



But the one thing which attracts you about North Bihar is the soft and twisting language 'Bhoj Puri'. It attracts you all of sudden and makes you feel very close to the person. It still has that charishma.But apart from this I had not found any thing else which I may mention or wish to recall.



This is the story of 1980s Bihar, and Imagine what imrints are left in Lalu's Bihar who completly destroyed almost everything and give that stamp on the forehead of every bihari to be insulted and thrown away from main stream.





But Bihar is on move as is India. Thanks to Nitish Kumar and hs good gvernace.All credit must go to this man who has changed the face of Bihar and every single Bihari.



Brajesh Upadhyaya, A proud Bihari and a senior BBC Journalist acknowledge the developmental work done by Nitish Kumar and so is me.



Bihar may not be another Gujrat in next five years but surly it send a clear message that change is possible and even a Bihari can say that " I can". The phrase is absolutely possible for Bihar and I must admit that Bihar sends a message for neighbouring states like Uttar Pradesh that you too can.



Atleast U.P also showing lots of responsibility by acting maturly and wisely to Ayodhya Verdict which establishes that people of U.P. and India now understand what exactly can make them a contrbuter in new developing and shining India.



India is on move and so are states like Bihar and U.P.



May god bless both the states which are often categorised as black mark on the face of India's Growth.



Amen.
