The government has made major announcements in the Union Budget 2025 to boost infrastructure and development in Bihar, focusing on key sectors such as roads, healthcare and education.
These moves are seen as a pre-election move to woo voters by showcasing the government’s commitment to development in Bihar. The grant is being given with the aim of boosting the state’s economy and improving the standard of living of the state’s residents.
While the announcement was welcomed in Bihar, the Congress Party expressed concern that Andhra Pradesh was not getting the same attention.
Congress leaders questioned the fairness of the distribution of funds, especially in light of promises made for the development of the region after the bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh.
They demanded more equity to ensure that other states, such as Andhra Pradesh, are not left behind in the distribution of funds.
As Bihar gears up for elections, the budget targeting the state has become a subject of political debate. While some see the proposals as addressing long-standing needs, others see it as a choice.
At the same time, the Congress Party advocates transparency and fairness in the distribution of resources, especially in states like Andhra Pradesh that are facing economic problems.
