Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar began the JDU campaign for the upcoming assembly elections with a programme called ‘Har Ghar Dastak’. The idea behind the campaign is to seek feedback about the work done by the state government in the past.
As part of the programme, the Chief Minister knocked doors of 10 households in Pachim Darwaza, represented by BJP leader Nand Kishore Yadav, in Patna city, falling under the Patna Sahib Assembly seat.
The interactive programme with people was formally launched by state JDU President Basistha Narayan Singh at the party headquarters in New Delhi.
Kumar told reporters that he, as a disciplined soldier of the JDU, had started the Har Ghar Dastak programme after it was launched by the state party chief.
He said efforts would be made to reach out to one crore homes under the programme.
JDU spokesman Sanjay Singh said, Har Ghar Dastak would run in two phases from July 2 to July 11, and from July 21 to July 31. He said 10,000 party workers would knock doors of one crore homes.
