Bihar roads are better than in many parts of Europe: EU MPs

A delegation of European Union (EU) MPs recently met Bihar CM Nitish Kumar and told that the roads in the state are better than those in many European countries like Belgium and Romania.
Wow!! It seems those days are over when Bihar's roads were compared with the cheeks of Om Puri.

I don't know how much Bihar is progressing or whether it will get counted among the most developed states of India in the near future, however one thing is very obvious that it is getting much good press along with Nitish Kumar.
Recently only Anna Hazare took Nitish's name along with Narendra Modi's name in the same breath while talking about development in India. The initial report of Census 2011 too is showing tremendous progress for Bihar, though still it is trailing behind the rest of India.

People are talking about the Bihar's model of development!!
Lets hope that Bihar progresses fast and uniformly.

Is there anything to cheer about Bihar’s literacy rate?

Is there anything to cheer about Bihar’s literacy rate?: "True, according to Census 2011 data, Bihar’s literacy figure jumped from 47.5 per cent to 63.82 per cent in the last ten years. But this does not mean that there is something to celebrate about as the state has long way to go."
