The Impressive TimesNew Delhi, 12 December 2023 – Bihar Water Resources and Public Relations minister Sanjay Jha has said that the central government should build a dam on the Nepal border to prevent flooding in north Bihar or give a package to prevent it. In an address sent by a group of Maithil journalists to the Press Club of india, Delhi, for Mithila Mahotsav 7 and Mithila Literature Festival-4, he said there is an agreement between the two countries for this. But no initiative has been taken to prepare DPR.
In his audio address, Sanjay Jha also hinted at issues of JDU’s fight with BJP in Bihar. According to him, the revival work of Mother Sita’s birthplace, Punaura Dam, will begin in December this year. While the goal is to complete this work by next year. It is believed that by starting this work ahead of the consecration program of Lord Ram idol to be held on January 22 in Ayodhya, the Bihar government is gearing up to take on the BJP on religious issues as well. However, he also expressed his intention to develop facilities at Simaria Dham, a center of faith in North Bihar. He said wide ghats are being constructed there for Ganga Aarti and other functions. Other objects are also being developed there. This work will be finished before time.
Sanjay Jha also said how the Mithilahat being built near Janjharpur is creating employment for thousands of people at the local level. However, he also gave examples of implementation of irrigation scheme in Darbhanga-Madhuban, Kosi flood zone by laying canal and doing farming in flood affected area. He also demanded from the Central Government that the Archeology Leavement excavate the ancient remains of Uchait, the birthplace of the immortal poet Kalidasa, and bring it before the world. This will help bring the ancient city and Mithila civilization to the world. That is why tourism development will be possible there.
On this occasion, BJP National Spokesperson and renowned physician Dr. Ajay Alok said that the language and civilization of Mithila is among the sweetest languages in the world. This region has been a center of knowledge, civilization, culture and history since ancient times. Surrounded by the Mother Ganga on one side, the Kosi River on one side, the Gandak River on one side and the Himalayas on the other, this region has been recognized for its intellectual prowess since ancient times. There is huge potential here for many types of employment in the industry. In this regard, the BJP has been constantly raising demands. But currently the government is at the center of the administrative system there. He does not take steps in this direction. It has been the vision of BJP and especially PM Modi that employment and industry should be developed in every state. People of Bihar are going to support BJP next time. After that, the change will appear there.
In his address, Congress secretary Pranab Jha said that the central government should take the initiative to establish several large government and private industries in Bihar. The government has huge sectors ranging from railways to food processing. through which the central government can directly provide employment opportunities there. According to him, the Congress has always been in favor of creating jobs at the central government level in this way. So that Mithilanchal and other districts of Bihar get employment opportunities. According to him, the railway plant in Madhepura during the Congress rule was the result of this thinking. On the occasion, Mithila industrialists RC Chaudhary and Arvind Jha also expressed their views.
