PM Modi deliberately left Bihar, a backward state : Prashant

Patna, June 5 (UNI) Jan Suraaj founder Prashant Kishor on Thursday alleged that Prime Minister Narendra Modi deliberately did not make any attempt to set up industries in Bihar, so that labourers from the state could be utilised for factories in Gujarat.
Kishor told media persons in Saran district of Bihar during his " Badlao Yatra ", that Bihar was a backward state and it was well known to all.
PM Narendra Modi had promised to set up industries in Bihar but during his last ten years in office, he did not make any sincere effort to ensure setting up industries in the state, he added.
"Reason behind indifferent attitude of PM Modi in taking steps to set up industries in Bihar is clear as he wants to keep the state backward so that labourers could be supplied from Bihar for working in factories in Gujarat," Jan Suraaj leader said adding that labourers from Bihar were prepared to work at Rs 12 to 15 thousands per month while labourers of Tamil Nadu and Gujarat were demanding Rs 25,000 per month.
Such approach of PM Modi to keep Bihar, a backward state, was highly deplorable and people of the state would give NDA, a befitting reply in next Bihar assembly elections, he stressed.
Kishor while talking about Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, said that he was not in a position to rule Bihar any more.
Not a single statement of Kumar was visible anywhere on death of rape victim in Muzaffarpur district, he pointed out.
