Patna, (Bihar Times): A team of Planning Commission led
by B K Chatrurvedi, praised the state government’s
efforts to give 50 per cent reservation to women in
rural and urban local bodies. Besides, it appreciated
the work done in the field of health and education.
However, it expressed concern over the very low per
capita income in the state and suggested that
government and private sector should work in tandem to
improve it.
The team highlighted the government’s effort in the
direction of agriculture and sericulture too, in
particular the launching of Agriculture Roadmap.
The team held a meeting with the chief minister,
Nitish Kumar, in Patna on Friday.
