Patna: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday launched a scathing attack at the opposition in Bihar and said that those who believe in “jungle raj hate our heritage and faith”, adding that the people of the state will never forgive those abuse Maha Kumbh.
The prime minister’s remark gains significance in the backdrop of heavy criticism from the opposition over the alleged mismanagement, accidents, lack of ‘clean water’ at the world’s largest spiritual gathering.
PM Modi while addressing the gathering said that Congress and those who were in the jungle raj defamed Bihar. They pushed Bihar backwards.

PM Modi also mentioned the names of many schemes started in Bihar. He said that Bhagalpur used to be the centre of global knowledge. We are working to connect the ancient glory of Nalanda University with modern India. Soon the central government is going to make Vikramshila University a central university. Work on this has already started.
While addressing a massive gathering in the Bhagalpur district, PM Modi in Bihar expressed gratitude over his visit to the land of Mandarachal during the time of Maha Kumbh. “This land has faith, heritage and the potential of a developed India. This is the land of Shaheed Tilka Majhi. This is also the Silk City. Preparations are going on for Maha Shivratri here. In such a holy time, I have got the privilege of sending one more instalment of PM Kisan Samman Nidhi Yojana to many people in the country,” he said.
In his address, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said, ‘Preparations for Mahashivratri are also going on at this holy land of Baba Ajaibinath.
