Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on Tuesday announced that the state government will provide employment to one crore youth in the next five years. He also targeted the opposition over law and order and poor infrastructure.
Addressing a rally, CM Nitish stressed that his government has already given jobs to 50 lakh youth.
He said, “.A total of 50 lakh youth have been given government jobs. We have decided that in the next 5 years we will provide jobs to 1 crore youth.”
Further, the Bihar Chief Minister said that his government has been continuously working for the development of the state for the last 20 years, recalling the poor condition of law and order, education and infrastructure before his tenure.
He said that under his leadership, roads, electricity and peace have improved in Bihar and the atmosphere of fear has ended and an atmosphere of love, brotherhood and harmony has been created.
Nitish Kumar said, “Our government has been continuously engaged in development work for 20 years, but remember the condition of the government before us. People did not come out of their homes after the evening. There was so much conflict in the society. The condition of education was also the same.”
“There were very few roads and electricity was available in very few houses. But when we got the chance, we worked for everyone… Now there is no atmosphere of fear or dread. There is an atmosphere of love, brotherhood and peace in the state,” he said.
