Patna, Apr 25 (PTI) Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar today directed the state unit of NDA to set up a task force comprising ruling coalition members to help the state government in its drive against corruption in the state. Kumar gave the directive to the state unit NDA Convenor Nand Kishore Yadav during ‘Janata Darbar’ at his residence, JD(U) Spokesman Sanjay Singh told reporters here. The task force comprising NDA activists would keep a watch over public servants against corruption, particularly in the schemes like Indira Awas Yojona, he said. The members would also advise the state government about various measures to root out corruption in the state, Singh said.The task force would further spread awareness among the people about various central and state welfare schemes so that they could seek benefit as a matter of right and without paying bribe to the officials for the same, the JD(U) leader said.
Bihar Government has become 500% more corrupt during the second term of Nitish Kumar, than it was during Lalu’s reign. From his personal Principal Secretary to DM to Ministers all are so very very corrupt. The Chief Minister must be a party to all this, otherwise how do you explain the massive corruption. Is he fiddling like Nero while Patna burns. Wakey! Wakey! Mr. Honest CM (!!!???).
I am an NRI from South Africa. I wanted to build a super speciality hospital in Patna. I approached the Principal Secy to CM for allotment of 5 Acres. He asked for Rs.1 cr, the DM, one Sanjay fellow wanted 75 lacs and Commissioner Mina wanted 20 lacs. Being from minority i approached Minister Shahid Khan, and imagine my surprise when he said he wanted a partnership in my hospital sic.
It is now coming up in Haryana, and i did not pay a single paisa as bribe. So much for touting Bihar as corrupt free state. No one from S. Africa will ever invest in Bihar. I have lodged a formal complaint with Business chambers here in Johannesburg.
Perhaps you are right Farid. Although the Head has changed in Bihar, the entire body is yet to witness change.
The people are still corrupt to the worst degree..
Anyway we shall take this issue to higher levels. We request you for your permission. And be assured there would be positive action
Thanks
