Shatrughan Sinha lauds PM, says Bihar CM is development oriented

In a series of tweets, Sihna wrote: "Bihar is my strength and my weakness and I always want to be working for its betterment."

Sinha, who could not accompany Prime Minister Narendra Modi recently on his visit to Bihar for the inauguration of three rail road-bridges, apologised for his absence and said that a personal tragedy kept him out.

"In the interest of development & progress of my Bihar, I would have been there with our dashing, dynamic and action hero Prime Minister, on the stage and everywhere during his recent visit. Unfortunately, due to a tragedy in my family, I was unable to accompany him. I am sorry I could not be there with our people, with our progressive PM and our development oriented CM Nitish Kumar."

Lauding the PM, Sinha called him dashing and dynamic and said, "Also delighted that our dashing, dynamic PM has taken the initiative in bridging the gaps and moving towards consentual politics.

Sinha also expressed his concern for the ageing Mahatma Gandhi Setu, a bridge connecting Bihar and the north eastern states.

"While talking of bridges, I am greatly concerned about the condition of Mahatma Gandhi Setu, the lifeline connecting North & South Bihar."

He said that he expects the financial package to come as soon as possible.

"It is in urgent need of repair & stregthening. Hope wish and pray that the much needed, desired and deserved package, and finacial support is made available soon so that the repair is initiated at the earliest - sooner the better."
