Month long battle for getting into the ruling chair is getting over. It must be a gruelling task for the participants. With whatever appeared in digital media that I could access from my US abode, be it by the articles of Ashok V.Desai, Raj Kumar, Yogendra Yadav or NDTV 24x7 TV show with Pranay Ray, Soopariwala and Shekhar Gupta, I predict a win for Nitish Kumar. It will also mean a death of caste and confirmation of development based politics. He will get that one more chance he had been campaigning for. And naturally the million dollars question will then be;

What Next? Will it be the end of divisive politics?

Will Bihar be transformed to a prospered peaceful Bihar in next five years? Will the employees and the officers and their family members shun the lure of ‘upari aamdani’?

Can the sons of Kariman, a dalit, build his house next to Ram Chandra Singh belonging to socalled forward class?

Or will the wait never end?

Can Bihar do that inspite of any in the government?

Will Man Mohan’s government listen to Bihar’s need more positively?

And will Lalu and Paswan go out of the politics of Bihar and shift to New Delhi?

Mr. Nitish Kumar must come out a clear cut time bound agenda for the development and try to achieve what he promises by the end of the fourth year.

I have only single priority still.

Let Nitish get each and every Bihari literate, educated and skilled. Let him beg borrow or even steel to get that happen.

Hello Shrama jee,

You asked several questions in your article – mainly suspecting so-called upper caste (by-birth) and Muslim Community inclination and trend towards Nitish regime and talking about Bihari Judgment on Rabri jee. And without mincing a word on these questions you came up with new article.

Please enlighten us – “Has Bihar Changed?”
