In a major pre-poll sop for Bihar, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday announced the package of a whopping Rs 1.25 lakh crore. He promised that the state will touch new heights of development if the BJP is voted to power.

Modi also hit out at Chief Minister Nitish Kumar for putting the prestige of Bihar at stake for his political gains by pleading with the previous UPA government for packages and getting only Rs 12,000 crore.

I am here today to fulfil my promise to you. I am announcing a package of Rs 1.25 lakh crore for Bihar. Now you give me your blessings to change the fate of Bihar... Only development will benefit the state and eradicate its poverty.
– Narendra Modi, Prime Minister

Modi also made it clear that the Rs 1.25 lakh crore package will be in addition to the ongoing development projects worth Rs 40,657 crore, announced previously.
