‘Vision For Self-Reliant And Developed Bihar’: PM Modi Hails NDA’s Manifesto
‘Vision For Self-Reliant And Developed Bihar’: PM Modi Hails NDA’s Manifesto
Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday hailed the National Democratic Alliance's (NDA) manifesto for the upcoming Bihar Assembly elections, saying it as a vision for a self-reliant and developed Bihar.
In a post on X, the Prime Minister said that the manifesto clearly presents the NDA's roadmap to make life easier for every section of society — including farmers, youth, women, and all families of Bihar.
“The NDA's manifesto for the Bihar Assembly elections clearly brings forward our vision for a self-reliant and developed Bihar. It reflects our commitment to making life easier for the farmers, brothers and sisters, youth companions, mothers and sisters here, as well as all my family members of the state," he said in a post on X.
बिहार विधानसभा चुनाव के लिए जारी हुआ एनडीए का संकल्प-पत्र आत्मनिर्भर और विकसित बिहार के हमारे विजन को स्पष्ट रूप से सामने लाता है। इसमें यहां के किसान भाई-बहनों, युवा साथियों और माताओं-बहनों के साथ ही राज्य के मेरे सभी परिवारजनों के जीवन को और आसान बनाने के लिए हमारी प्रतिबद्धता…— Narendra Modi (@narendramodi) October 31, 2025
In another X post, PM Modi praised the “double-engine government" of the NDA in Bihar and asserted that the alliance has left no stone unturned in ensuring all-round development in the state.
“The state's double-engine government has left no stone unturned in ensuring all-round development of Bihar, as a result of which our state has witnessed major transformations. We are determined to accelerate this momentum further and make good governance the foundation of prosperity for every individual," he said.
बिहार के चौतरफा विकास के लिए राज्य की डबल इंजन सरकार ने कोई कोर-कसर नहीं छोड़ी है, जिससे हमारा यह राज्य बड़े-बड़े बदलाव का साक्षी बना है। इसमें और तेजी लाकर हम सुशासन को जन-जन की समृद्धि का आधार बनाने के लिए कृतसंकल्प हैं। मुझे विश्वास है कि हमारे इन प्रयासों को जनता-जनार्दन का…— Narendra Modi (@narendramodi) October 31, 2025
Expressing confidence in the people's support, PM Modi said he was sure that the public would give the NDA's efforts their full backing in the upcoming elections.
Additionally, Union Home Minister Amit Shah parised the manifesto saying, “Bihar in the NDA government is now ready to take a new leap from heritage to science, and from education to public welfare."
In a post on X, he said, “In this direction, the NDA's manifesto ‘Developed Bihar' is set to serve as the blueprint. With Mithila Mega Textile Park, Mega Tech City and Fintech City, world-class Medicity and Sports City, Bihar will become a hub of innovation in every sector, while the Ma Janaki Temple, Vishnupad, Mahabodhi Corridor, Ramayana, Jain and Buddhist Circuits, and 1 lakh green homestays will transform Bihar's religious sites into centers of world tourism. Along with this, the establishment of the Flood Management Board and ‘Flood to Fortune' will make Bihar flood-free."
NDA सरकार में बिहार अब विरासत से लेकर विज्ञान, और शिक्षा से लेकर जनकल्याण तक नई छलांग लगाने के लिए तैयार है। इस दिशा में NDA का संकल्प पत्र ‘विकसित बिहार' का ब्लूप्रिंट सिद्ध होने वाला है।मिथिला मेगा टेक्सटाइल पार्क, मेगा टेक सिटी व फिनटेक सिटी, विश्वस्तरीय मेडिसिटी और…

The BJP-led alliance unveiled its joint manifesto for the upcoming Bihar Assembly elections, pledging a comprehensive development roadmap, with an assurance of one crore government jobs and a flood-free Bihar within five years. At its core, the manifesto groups its 25 resolutions into six broad focus areas.
It promised enhanced women's empowerment schemes and robust improvements in infrastructure, education, and healthcare. It also highlighted commitments to make Bihar a global skill hub, industrial centre, and cultural tourism destination.
The NDA assured over 1 crore jobs through government and private opportunities, skill census and mega skill centres in every district. If voted to power, NDA said it would provide Rs 10 lakh financial aid for the various Economically Backward Class communities and a high-level committee under a retired Supreme Court judge for fair upliftment measures.
The NDA has also promised to build 50 lakh new pucca houses and provide free ration, 125 units of free electricity, free treatment up to Rs 5 lakh, and social security pension under the PM Awas Yojana.
