Jitan Ram Manjhi on JDU Leaders’ Demand for Bihar’s Special Status:…

Jitan Ram Manjhi has announced that the Central government has provided assurance of financial assistance to Bihar. This declaration came during an interaction with media in Hajipur where he stated that the NITI Aayog has confirmed the denial of special status to any state in the country.

He emphasized that regardless of the efforts made by various political parties, special status will not be granted to any state. Manjhi further expressed confidence in the Central government’s commitment to providing necessary funds for Bihar’s development.

He specifically mentioned that both the central government and Prime Minister Narendra Modi are prepared to offer the required financial support. The JD-U leaders have been actively advocating for special status for Bihar since the formation of the NDA government at the Centre.

Notably, Water Resource Minister Vijay Kumar Chaudhary and Building Construction Minister Ashok Choudhary have been outspoken in their demands for special status. On the other hand, opposition leaders, such as RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav and Congress leader Meira Kumar, have criticized the JD-U for seeking special status from the BJP, especially given their participation in the NDA government.

They have openly mocked the JD-U for their stance on this issue. It’s important to note that the content of the story has not been altered by NDTV staff and has been published from a syndicated feed.
