Bihar's two Resurrectionaries | The Caravan: "From the 1990s to the early 2000s, this emancipation went beyond mere symbolism as, for the first time, an entire generation of Backward Caste and Dalit youth grew up in an environment of relative freedom and dignity, unencumbered by an inheritable legacy of oppression.
So, by the time Nitish Kumar took office in 2005, this generation was better educated and better informed about its rights and eager to participate in its own economic uplift. Laloo might have silently watched over the economic breakdown of the state, for which perhaps there is no justification, but nonetheless his policies sowed the seeds of aspirations for a better life among its people."
