Union Home Minister Amit Shah’s Bihar sojourn enters day two with a pivotal event in Araria: the grand opening of an SSB outpost in Letti. This Thursday visit prioritizes on-ground security audits before delving into strategic talks at the district headquarters.
Joining him will be district heads and police chiefs from seven Nepal-border districts, dissecting challenges from cross-border movements to the momentum of the Vibrant Villages Programme. The goal? Seamless execution of development in frontier areas while plugging security gaps.
Purnea awaits on February 27 for the final leg of official meets, after which Shah returns to Delhi. Kicking off Wednesday in Purnea and swiftly moving to Kishanganj via chopper, the tour has already appraised coordination levels in these high-risk locales.
Amid comprehensive security blankets and perfected logistics, this outreach post-Naxal victory pivots to Seemanchal’s de-infiltration campaign. Repeated ministerial presence reaffirms the Centre’s resolve: fortify borders, track progress on key schemes, and foster robust governance near international lines with Nepal and Bangladesh.
