BHABUA, Oct. 27 -- Bihar chief minster Samrat Chaudhary, while addressing a national religious congregation on the concluding day of Shrilaxminarayan Mahagya by renowned Shri Vaishnava sage Shri Laxmiprapanna Jiyar Swami at Bhabua in Kaimur on Monday, said that the blessings of saints are necessary for the development and prosperity of Bihar. The chief minister said that saints, by renouncing worldly pleasures, remain committed to the nation and society by continuously establishing a religious life and spreading the message of character building. They have sacrificed their lives to save Sanatan Dharma. Describing the Vishnupad Temple Corridor, which is under construction since 35,000 in Gaya Ji, as the state's biggest temple renovation project, the CM said that his government is committed to the development of Hariharnath Temple Sonpur, Mundeshwari Bhawani Dham and famous pilgrimage sites. Referring to the unprecedented development in the country and Bihar under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and former Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, he described the eco-tourism hubs being developed in Kaimur, Rohtas and other areas of South Bihar as historic. Jiyar Swami has a large following in the Bhojpuri-speaking Purvanchal region of Uttar Pradesh, bordering Bihar districts and Jharkhand. Given the presence of lakhs of migrants from these Bihar districts in Varanasi and its surrounding areas, the CM's visit is being viewed as a significant messaging event before the 2027 UP assembly elections....
