Prime Minister Modi inaugurated developmental initiatives amounting to Rs 21,400 crore in Aurangabad and delivered a public address at Ratanwa village. The event was attended by Governor Rajendra V Arlekar, Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, Deputy CMs Samat Chaudhary and Vijay Kumar Sinha, along with several Union ministers.
PM Modi, while addressing the public rally, said: “Bihar will develop only with the poor of the state will progress...Therefore, our government is focused on increasing the capacity of every poor, Dalit, Adivasi & deprived…”


Aiming at the opposition, PM Modi said, “Since NDA has become stronger, dynastic politics in Bihar is moving towards its end. One might inherit a political party and post from parents, but they don't dare to even once mention the work done by the mother and father. I have heard that their party leaders are not ready to contest Lok Sabha elections. They are now looking for Rajya Sabha seats.”
