Good move

The news of opening a textile park is a good move by government. It will further boost up the industrialisation of the Bihar state. Bhagalpur was already famous for its chadars and lungis. With this it will further boost the textile manufacturers in the state. It will help Bihar in gaining some good ground for the private sector to invest and start some industries. Bihar had really lost many of the its glorious things during 15 years of misrule by Lalu-Rabri regime. In the last two years after Nitish govt. came into power, the state is slowly recovering in terms of law & order and road infrastructure facility, but still the Nitish govt. has to go a long way in bringing the state at par with other states (Gujarat, Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Maharashtra etc.) of India. The govt should be faster to start implementing all the programs they announced very seriously, sincerly and with full honesty. We hope that Nitish govt. will definitely work honestly for the welfare of people and for Bihar.
