Patna,(BiharTimes): The state government on Thursday hoped that post-prohibition Bihar would achieve the revenue target of around Rs 22,000 crore fixed for the current financial year.

This hope was expressed by development commissioner Shishir Sinha and planning and development department principal secretary Deepak Prasad only days after the state Assembly was informed by finance minister Abdul Bari Siddiqui in the last Monsoon Session that the internal resources had fallen by over 33 per cent in the first quarter of this financial year.

Later commercial taxes minister Bijendra Yadav too expressed hope that the target would be achieved.
