Patna: Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on Saturday released a video for the citizens of Bihar ahead of the assembly elections in the state and said he has "served" them with "honesty and hard work" since he was first elected in 2005.
In over a three-minute video address, the JD(U) leader said that "being a Bihari was a matter of insult" when he first became the chief minister in 2005.
"My dear brothers and sisters of Bihar, you have given me the opportunity to serve you since 2005. I want to tell you that the situation in which we got Bihar, at that time, being a Bihari was a matter of insult. Since then, we have served you day and night with honesty and hard work," he said.
Kumar, whose JD(U) is currently part of the ruling BJP-led NDA in Bihar, said they have improved education, health, roads, electricity, drinking water, agriculture, and opportunities for youngsters.
"The previous government did not do any work for women. We have now made women so strong that they are no longer dependent on anyone and can do all the work for their families and children. We want to tell you that we have developed all the classes of society from the beginning," he said.
"Whether you are a Hindu, a Muslim, an upper caste, a backward, a Dalit, or a Mahadalit, we have worked for everyone. I have not done anything for my family," Kumar, who took oath as the Chief Minister of Bihar for a record ninth time after forming a new partnership with the BJP in 2024, said.
"Now, being a Bihari is not a matter of insult but a matter of respect," he added.
"Give us one more chance. After this, more work will be done, which will develop Bihar so much that it will be included in the top states," he said as he requested them to vote for the NDA candidates.
The 243-member Bihar Assembly will go to polls in two phases on November 6 and 11, and the counting will be held on November 14.
