There is election in Bihar this year. It can be announced in October-November. Nitish Kumar is probably going to fight his last election. In such a situation, this is a big fight for him. But in Bihar, from Tejashwi Yadav to Prashant Kishore, everyone is in the field to stop his victory chariot. On one hand, the public has high expectations from the budget of the election year, while the opposition puts pressure on the government to make more and more announcements. This has been seen in Bihar as well. From Tejashwi Yadav to Rabri Devi, everyone became active before the budget was presented.
What did Samrat Chaudhary do in the Bihar budget that Nitish Kumar started hugging him? The atmosphere in Bihar before and after the budget was presented today was completely different. Know the highlights of the budget here…
Former Bihar Chief Minister Rabri Devi demanded the government to give Rs 2500 per month to women. Even before the proceedings of the budget session of the Bihar Legislature began on Monday, opposition MLAs demonstrated in the Legislature premises. Opposition MLAs, holding posters and placards in their hands, said that they do not have much hope from this budget. They asked the government what is special for the women and youth of Bihar? Will the government give 200 units of electricity free? Former Bihar Chief Minister Rabri Devi said that under social security, old age pension should be made Rs 1500. Apart from this, the gas cylinder which is available for Rs 1200 should be made Rs 500 per cylinder. She said that the government will have to give pension of Rs 2500 per month to all the women of the state, irrespective of their class and religion. People will have to be given 200 units of electricity free. Former Chief Minister Rabri Devi also said that the government will not do the work of misleading the public in the budget. Tejashwi Yadav also kept on cornering the government with his mother. But those who know the economy of Bihar know very well that it is not easy for Bihar to fulfill all this. It is easy to make false promises, but difficult to implement them on the ground. Amidst all this, Bihar Finance Minister and Deputy CM Samrat Chaudhary presented the budget of Bihar for the financial year 2025-26 in the Assembly. On hearing his announcements during the budget, Nitish Kumar was sometimes seen smiling and sometimes patting the table. As Samrat Choudhary read the budget, Nitish Kumar, who has seen all seasons of Bihar politics, started looking very confident. The situation was such that as soon as Samrat Choudhary finished the budget, he hugged him. It seemed as if Samrat Choudhary had fulfilled his wish.
