On Saturday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi emphasized that the BJP-led NDA government is fully committed to fostering comprehensive development in Bihar, a state celebrated for its rich cultural and historical significance. His remarks were made in the lead-up to the upcoming Bihar Assembly elections later this year.

As he wished the people of Bihar a happy foundation day, PM Modi praised the state’s profound heritage, its vital contributions to Indian history, and the resilient spirit of its citizens that drives progress.

In a post on X, PM Modi expressed in Hindi, “Warm wishes to my brothers and sisters in Bihar, the sacred land of heroes and esteemed figures, on Bihar Diwas. Our state, which has proudly contributed to Indian history, is now experiencing a significant phase in its developmental journey, driven by the diligent and talented people of Bihar. We will spare no efforts in ensuring the all-around development of this state, which is the heart of our culture and tradition.”

Bihar Day, or Bihar Diwas, is celebrated annually on March 22, commemorating the creation of the state in 1912 when the British separated it from Bengal, and is recognized as a public holiday across Bihar.

Union Home Minister Amit Shah also conveyed his best wishes to the people of Bihar on this special day. He acknowledged the state’s historical contributions to the nation, highlighting its pivotal role in shaping both ancient and modern India.

In his message on X, Shah stated, “Warm greetings on ‘Bihar Day’ to everyone in Bihar. Bihar, a land of knowledge, tradition, and cultural wealth, has always been a source of leadership and renewed vitality for the country. From its glorious past to the formation of modern India, Bihar has made an indelible impact in every sphere. Under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the NDA government is dedicated to elevating Bihar to new levels of progress, prosperity, and self-reliance. I wish peace, happiness, and advancement for the people of Bihar.”

Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar also reached out with greetings on the occasion of Bihar Diwas, reflecting on the state’s illustrious history.

“Congratulations and best wishes on Bihar Diwas. Bihar boasts a magnificent past, and we are diligently working towards crafting a bright future for the state. Together, we will elevate Bihar’s pride to new heights,” the Chief Minister remarked in a post on X.

National: One year after the deadly terror attack in Pahalgam, the nation remembers the 26 people who lost their lives. The attack took place on April 22 at Baisaran, a popular tourist spot.

At first, reports said only five people were injured. Later, it became clear that it was one of the worst terror attacks in the region in decades. Terrorists came out of the forest and opened fire on tourists.

Survivors said the attackers separated men from women and children. They then shot the men at close range. Many victims were reportedly targeted after being asked about their religion.

A heartbreaking image of Himanshi Narwal sitting beside her husband’s body became a symbol of the tragedy. Her husband, a naval officer, was among those killed.

The group The Resistance front, linked to Lashkar-e-Taiba, claimed responsibility. The case was investigated by the National Investigation Agency.

After months of tracking, security forces launched Operation Mahadev. On July 28, 2025, all three terrorists were killed after a long search operation.

The attack remains a painful memory and a reminder of the need for strong security.
