Nitish Kumar Unveils Rs 853 Crore Development Blueprint in Muzaffarpur, Promises One Crore Jobs Over Next Five Years

On Friday, Chief Minister Nitish Kumar arrived in Muzaffarpur as part of the Samriddhi Yatra. He spent around two hours in the city, showcasing a strong link between power, politics, and development. To underline the government’s commitment to development, he announced projects worth ₹853 crore aimed at improving the district.

During his visit, the Chief Minister opened, laid foundation stones, and initiated a total of 172 projects. Out of these, he dedicated 47 completed projects costing ₹212 crore to the people. The foundation stone for 89 new projects worth ₹194 crore was also laid, and work began on 36 schemes costing ₹447 crore, with agencies already appointed for these tasks.

This visit is seen as a step towards implementing promises rather than just announcing new ones. The Chief Minister reviewed ongoing projects and received detailed reports from the district administration on the progress of various schemes. He also checked on the four-lane road and the approach road for the new Chandwara Bridge.

Key updates shared included the finalized alignment for the Muzaffarpur East Bypass and plans for developing Ramdayalu Junction. This development will include a circular road and three elevated roads, which are expected to ease traffic congestion in the city significantly.

Additionally, the Chief Minister praised the efforts of Jeevika Didis during his visit and inaugurated a new administrative building worth ₹71 crore along with 283 new shops. He emphasized that in the next five years, one crore youth will be provided with jobs, supported by a new skill development department.
