Bihar on fast track of development, NDA will return to power: Anurag Thakur

Patna, Sep 12 (UNI) Former union Minister and Hamirpur MP Anurag Singh Thakur today said that Bihar has gained strong momentum in development under the NDA government, and the people are ready to re-elect the alliance in the upcoming elections.
Addressing youth conferences in Bhagalpur and Barh constituencies, Thakur asserted that under Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s leadership, the NDA government in Bihar has delivered good governance and welfare. “We have resolved to make India a developed nation by 2047, and Bihar’s role is crucial in this journey," he said adding that unlike RJD and Congress, which shamed Bihar with exploitation and corruption, NDA has ensured education, employment, and welfare.
Thakur launched a scathing attack on the RJD, recalling past scams. “History has never witnessed a Chief Minister accused of eating up fodder meant for cows and buffaloes or feed meant for poultry. Fodder scam, job scam, booth capturing, election rigging has been their legacy".
