Union Minister Nitin Gadkari said on Thursday that Bihar’s network of national highways will be similar to that of the United States by the time the BJP-led NDA completes its 15-year term at the Centre in 2029.
Gadkari, who is in charge of road transport and highways, made the statement at Bodh Gaya while speaking at two consecutive occasions.
“Our government is making rapid progress in road infrastructure, and that is showing in Bihar, too. I promise that after the current five-year term, when we will be completing 15 years in power, the network of Bihar will be on par with that of America,” the former BJP president said.
Bihar’s road network has seen tremendous improvement in the last few years, and the NDA government will continue to work for further development, said Gadkari, who inaugurated and laid foundation stones of projects to the tune of Rs 3,700 crore.
“Bodh Gaya is the centre of the cultural heritage of Bihar and India. With the projects inaugurated and foundation stones laid today, this region will rapidly move towards development,” he said.
