PATNA, Nov. 10 -- Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to visit Bihar on November 21 to inaugurate the six-lane Kacchi Dargah-Bidupur bridge over the Ganga, which will connect Vaishali and other north Bihar districts, and lay the foundation stone for major projects in the state, NDA leaders said on Monday during a joint presser at the JD(U) office. The first phase of the Kacchi-Dargah bridge till Raghopur was inaugurated on June 23 , 2025 by then chief minister Nitish Kumar. The bridge is around Rs.5,000 crore project which would enable better connectivity to people from Patna to north Bihar districts and also give an alternative route to go to north Bihar along with the Mahatma Gandhi Setu and JP Setu ( Digha -Sonepur rail cum road overbridge). The project was launched in 2015 August. State BJP chief Sanjay Saraogi and JD(U) state president Umesh Kushwaha along with leaders from other alliance partners of the NDA said PM Modi would attend a programme at Jaffarpati industrial park in Vaishali district and announce several development and infrastructure projects as a gift to the state. Saraogi said the current NDA government would complete its one year after coming to power in November, 2025 and PM Modi's visit to Bihar on November 21st would be a historic one. "The PM has been considerate about the interests of Bihar for quite a long time. His relationship with the state is not political, but that of vishwas (trust) and vikash (development)," he said. "Whenever the Prime Minister visits Bihar, he gives several gifts to the state. His dedication towards Bihar and his resolve to build a developed Bihar have been consistently visible," Saraogi said. LJP(RV) state president Surendra Vivek said party leaders and workers were making preparations to make the prime minister's visit "memorable". Five districts -- Jehanabad, Patna, Samastipur, Muzaffarpur and Vaishali -- have been included in a mobilisation drive, along with the Saran Assembly constituency, he added. Hindustani Awam Morcha-Secular (HAM-S) state chief Anil Kumar also highlighted the development works undertaken during the NDA's rule in the state. "Nitish Kumar transformed Bihar over the past 20 years. Be it in terms of roads, electricity, engineering colleges, medical colleges or polytechnic institutions, the state has witnessed unprecedented development. Samrat Choudhary is taking the development work further," he said. He said that people across the state were enthusiastic about NDA's development work and were keen about Modi's visit. Rashtriya Lok Morcha working state president Subhash Chandravanshi described PM's upcoming visit as a milestone. "Since 2005, Bihar has witnessed considerable development, particularly after 2014, when Modi assumed office and made special provisions for the state. His Vaishali visit will be a milestone in itself," he said. Preparations are underway to make the Prime Minister's visit to Vaishali a historic and memorable event. Land has also been acquired for the construction of a park spread over 1,243 acres in Vaishali. The NDA government will complete its first year in Bihar on November 20, while the Prime Minister's visit is scheduled for the following day....
