War in Middle East Fuels Price Hike, Affects Bihar Diwas Festivities
1 min read
From Patna, Bihar Minister Ramakripal Yadav articulated how the Middle East conflict has cast a shadow over global stability. Virtually no country has escaped the fallout, as petroleum derivatives grow prohibitively expensive and elusive—India included.
Commercial gas scarcity has been a tipping point, shutting down hotels and restaurants en masse. Yadav lauded PM Modi’s leadership in tackling this challenge effectively.
Coinciding with Bihar Diwas, Yadav described the elaborate statewide events: beautifully erected pandals, lively melas, and engaging expos. Under CM Nitish Kumar’s stewardship, he and others will officiate the launch.
Yadav also touched on Chaiti Chhath, noting his wife’s annual devotion to the fast for the happiness and progress of Bihar’s populace, including Patna and Danapur. She has upheld it unfailingly, even in the national capital.
Bihar Diwas resonated with messages from CM Nitish Kumar, central ministers, and peer chief ministers. Kumar’s rallying cry focused on Bihar’s proud history, current transformative vows, and a collective push toward a prosperous era.
