PM Modi to launch projects worth ₹10,000 crore in Bihar
Prime Minister Narendra Modi is heading to Siwan on June 20 to kick off development projects worth over ₹10,000 crore.
This includes the launch of the Patliputra-Gorakhpur Vande Bharat Express and upgrades to water and sewer systems in places like Bettiah, Chhapra, Motihari, and Siwan.
The visit is part of a bigger push by the NDA ahead of Bihar's assembly elections later this year.
Bihar elections around the corner
The government's focus on Bihar is evident—especially as Siwan has been an opposition stronghold.
With assembly elections coming up and seat-sharing talks still ongoing between BJP and JD(U), every move counts.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah will also be rallying support at the grassroots level, while officials keep an eye on flood impacts that could affect voters' lives.
All eyes are on how these big promises might shape Bihar's future—and its politics.
