He said, “It was on March 22, 1911, when India was not independent, that the state of Bihar was constituted. Today, Bihar Day is being celebrated not only in the country but also all over the world and the BJP is honouring the people of Bihar and Purvanchal. All this is being done under the guidance of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and it is an inspiration for those who are indulging in divisive politics of dividing the country into different parts.”
