JD(U) review preparations for ‘Good Governance Day- Nitish Samvad’

Patna, Nov 9 (UNI) The Janata Dal (United) on Monday organised a virtual meeting with district programme in-charges, district presidents and heads of various party wings to review preparations for the upcoming ‘Good Governance Day – Nitish Samvad’ programme scheduled to be held across Bihar on November 24.
JD(U) national president and former Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar reviewed the preparations and provided necessary directions to ensure the successful organisation of the programme.
JD(U) National Working President Sanjay Kumar Jha, state president Umesh Singh Kushwaha, Bihar Minister and state programme coordinator Leshi Singh and other senior leaders attended the meeting which discussed in detail the organisational framework and various aspects of preparations to make ‘Good Governance Day – Nitish Samvad’ a major event.
As part of the campaign, the JD(U) will organise ‘Good Governance – Nitish Paricharcha’ programmes at the panchayat and ward levels across the state from November 17 to 19. Preparatory meetings will subsequently be held at the block and sector levels from November 20 to 22. The main ‘Good Governance Day – Nitish Samvad’ programme will be organised in all districts on November 24.
Addressing the meeting, National Working President Sanjay Kumar Jha said there was a time when the word ‘Bihari’ was used as a term of ridicule. However, after Nitish Kumar assumed office as Chief Minister in 2005, his vision and development-oriented policies transformed Bihar and changed the perception of people towards the state and its residents.
Jha claimed that Nitish Kumar had accomplished in 20 years what had not been achieved in the preceding 1,000 years.
He said the objective of ‘Good Governance Day – Nitish Samvad’ was to take Nitish Kumar''s work and achievements to every household. Party workers should reach out to beneficiaries of various government schemes and involve them in the programme. He also stressed the need to share beneficiaries'' experiences through video messages.
Jha said Nitish Kumar had worked for all sections of society and made development the foundation of governance. He cited the revival of Nalanda University after nearly 800 years and the conceptualisation of the Bihar Museum as examples of the Chief Minister''s vision.
JD(U) state president Umesh Singh Kushwaha said November 24 held special significance for the people of Bihar as it marked the day Nitish Kumar assumed the charge of the state government in 2005.
He said the state had since moved towards development and good governance, leaving behind what he described as an era of ‘jungle raj’ and misgovernance.
Kushwaha said the benefits of development had reached every section of society over the past two decades.
Claiming that virtually no village, town, hamlet or household had remained untouched by Nitish Kumar''s development initiatives, he urged party office-bearers and workers to reach out to beneficiaries of various welfare schemes, document their experiences and invite them to the November 24 programme.
