"Pace of development in state will be faster...": Bihar Deputy CM Vijay Sinha

Patna: After the first cabinet meeting of the newly formed NDA government in Bihar, state Deputy Chief Minister Vijay Sinha on Monday asserted that the pace of development in the state will be faster under the "double-engine government." Addressing a press conference after the first cabinet meeting of the newly formed NDA government, Vijay Sinha said that it's time to serve the people.
"Today the major changes that have taken place in Bihar have been done under the vision of PM Modi, Amit Shah, and JP Nadda... I have been given a huge responsibility; it's time to serve the people," Sinha said. He further added, "The pace of development will be faster under the double-engine government. This opportunity is purely for service. The aim (of this opportunity) is to end the mentality of taking self-benefits and to create an environment that will create a creative and developmental environment in Bihar." JDU leader Nitish Kumar's move to end his alliance with the Lalu Prasad Yadav-led Rashtriya Janata Dal to revive his tie-up with the BJP comes as a massive setback to the INDIA bloc months before it takes on the formidable BJP in Lok Sabha polls. Nitish Kumar, after parting ways with the BJP in 2022, took on the initiative of uniting all opposition forces to jointly take on Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the ruling party in the national election. Nitish Kumar took the oath as Chief Minister of Bihar for the ninth time in Raj Bhawan, Patna, switching sides again, this time with the BJP-led National Democratic Alliance (NDA). It was for the second time in two years that Nitish Kumar had jumped the ship, his fifth crossover in a little over a decade.
Two Deputy CMs from the BJP, Samrat Choudhary and Vijay Kumar Sinha, and six other ministers, including Bijendra Prasad Yadav, Santosh Kumar Suman, Shrawan Kumar, and others, also took the oath on Sunday.
