RJD seeks explanation from Giriraj for not establishing any textile park in Bihar

Patna, June 13 (UNI) Accusing Union Textile Minister Giriraj Singh of not setting up any textile park in Bihar, RJD alleged that Singh deliberately neglected his state and failed to establish any textile park in the state.
RJD spokesperson Azaz Ahmed said here on Friday that Singh set up 9 textile parks in other states, whereas he failed to set up even a single such Park in Bihar. Ahmad blamed Singh for deliberately ignoring the state, which had great expectations from him.
The RJD leader said that in a jubilant mood, the BJP was celebrating 11 years of its rule at the centre by highlighting its achievements during the period; however it failed to fulfil its promises.
Referring to the assurances made by the BJP, Ahmed said that the NDA government should have provided jobs to 22 crore people during the 11 years of rule, whereas contrary to its promises, it was only able to provide 8 lakh jobs.
He said this indicates that the policies of the BJP for providing employment and jobs had lacunas, and it wants to sail only based on the politics of hatred.
The RJD leader accused the double-engine government of the NDA of rendering Bihar into a failure state. Bihar was not even getting its due from the centre, he alleged and added that due to the centre's attitude, Bihar failed on almost all parameters of development.
He alleged that the centre was ignoring financial assistance to Bihar whereas it was too liberal towards Gujarat.
The RJD leader alleged that the centre neither accorded special status to Bihar nor it give any special package to it.
