What are the measures announced for Bihar?
Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman made a series of impactful announcements for Bihar in her recent budget speech, aimed at boosting the state's economy and infrastructure, especially with the upcoming elections.
One key announcement was the establishment of a Makhana Board to support the state's farmers.
Bihar is the largest producer of Makhana, contributing nearly 80% of the country's output, so this move will provide much-needed support to local agriculture.
Sitharaman also focused on improving Bihar¡¯s connectivity with the rest of India.
She announced plans to facilitate the creation of greenfield airports in the state, which will help improve travel infrastructure and ease access to different parts of the country.
In addition, the government will provide financial support for the Western Kosi canal, a project expected to benefit 50,000 hectares of land in the Mithilanchal region, further supporting agriculture in the area.
On the education front, Sitharaman revealed plans to enhance infrastructure at the five IITs established after 2014. Specifically, IIT Patna will see expanded hostel and other facilities, catering to the growing demand for higher education in the region.
In a nod to Bihar's rich cultural and historical heritage, Sitharaman also promised a special focus on destinations related to the life and teachings of Lord Buddha.
With these announcements, Nirmala Sitharaman has clearly targetted Bihar¡¯s agricultural, educational, and cultural sectors, making a direct impact ahead of the state¡¯s elections later this year.
