Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday unveiled and laid foundation stones for development works worth Rs 12,992 crore in Bodh Gaya, dedicating 14 projects aimed at improving infrastructure and connectivity across districts such as Buxar, Munger, Muzaffarpur, Patna, Begusarai, Gaya, Aurangabad, Jehanabad, Lakhisarai, and Jamui.
Addressing a massive gathering in Gaya Ji, Prime Minister Narendra Modi highlighted the role of the double-engine government in driving Bihar’s growth and said his biggest satisfaction comes from serving people.
“Removing difficulties from the lives of the poor, making the lives of women easier — I find the greatest joy in serving the people as their servant,” PM Modi stated.
Reaffirming his commitment to ‘housing for all’, PM Modi declared that he would not rest until every needy family has a permanent home.
“Over the past 11 years, more than four crore poor people have been provided with permanent houses,” he asserted.
On the occasion, the Prime Minister also handed over keys to 16,000 families who have received houses under the PM Awas Yojana.
Sharing the Centre’s plans for Bihar, the Prime Minister said that the state stands high on the government’s development agenda and will see major benefits from new employment schemes.
He drew attention to the recently launched Pradhan Mantri Viksit Bharat Rozgar Yojana, rolled out on 15 August.
“Starting from August 15, the Prime Minister’s Developed India Employment Scheme has been implemented across the country. Under this scheme, when our youth take up their first job in the private sector, the Central government will provide them with Rs 15,000 from its own funds. The private companies that employ them will also receive incentives from the government. This will greatly benefit the youth of Bihar as well,” PM Modi remarked.
The PM also criticised earlier RJD-Congress governments, accusing them of fostering corruption and protecting criminals.
He targeted the Mahagathbandhan over its opposition to the new bills in Parliament that mandate the removal of Ministers, Chief Ministers, and even the Prime Minister if found complicit in criminal activity.
