In the era of digitalization and when everything is moving
so fast, being a citizen in tier-III city of Bihar, I hardly find anything that
is trending for the development of the citizen of Bihar.
Bihar has Malls, Huge buildings, great infrastructure, and
society which are waiting to embrace the change. You can find all these but the
most crucial thing that helps in developing the lifestyle of the society is
corporate culture. This is missing.
We do have investors who are investing in real estate, into
huge projects which are growing leaps and bounds in other states than in Bihar.
Why is the government of Bihar so adamant to get Bihar under
the category of Special state? Why is it not thinking of converting the state
Bihar as a Smart State?
I may not be the right person to comment on the policies
drafted and implemented by the state government, but as the citizen of Bihar, I
feel my state is not trending. There is a tendency in the youth to move out of
the state in search of jobs. The one who is living is struggling to get placed
only in government job keeping in consideration growth and security.
In India, in many states, the private companies, as well as
the MNC's, are providing numerous opportunities to its citizen, here is a state
where there is hardly any reach of private players. We hardly have any MNC.
The condition of different states like Telangana,
Uttarakhand wasn't better two-three decades ago but when we see the current
situation, these states have attracted not only the national investors but also
there are many international companies that are investing in these states
making them rich in employment and a wonderful place for living.
We need a 360-degree change in the outlook and the way we
present our state to the nation. Bihar is not trending due to two major
reasons:
1.
The government which is insensitive
towards many major issues
2.
The citizen, in particular, the
well-educated youth which hardly demands its basic right of employment in its
own domicile.
The stern action is to be taken by the corporate players and
should think of considering Bihar state as the right option for setting up
their branch. I wish this could happen.
