Nitish Kumar inaugurates, lays foundation stones for projects worth Rs 1,198.86 crore in West Champaran

Patna, Sep 23 (IANS) Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on Tuesday inaugurated and laid the foundation stone for 357 development projects worth Rs 1,198.86 crore at the designated site of the Lavkush Eco-Tourism Park in Valmikinagar, West Champaran district.

The projects include the inauguration of 237 schemes worth Rs 197.36 crore, foundation stone laying of 114 schemes worth Rs 586.67 crore and foundation stone laying of six schemes announced during the Pragati Yatra, costing Rs 414.83 crore.

The Chief Minister also inspected the proposed Lavkush Eco-Tourism Park site and later interacted with Jeevika Didis, pensioners, and other beneficiaries of government schemes at the Valmiki Auditorium complex.

After the foundation stone laying ceremony, Nitish Kumar addressed a large gathering in Bettiah, where he grew visibly emotional while recalling his government’s development journey in West Champaran.

“You all know how much I love West Champaran. Whenever I begin a tour, I start from here. I have a deep affection for this region. Earlier, people did not venture out here even during the day. When our government came to power, we got rid of the bandits. Today, Champaran has changed, and I am very happy about it,” Nitish Kumar said.

The Chief Minister listed his government’s achievements, including the appointment of over 5 lakh teachers, the opening of several medical colleges, free supply of 125 units of electricity, expansion of old age pensions, and creation of employment opportunities for women.

He also underlined that Bihar has the highest representation of women in police forces compared to other states.

Nitish Kumar stressed that his government has worked for all communities—Hindus and Muslims alike—citing measures such as boundary walls for temples and fencing for graveyards.

He accused previous regimes of promoting communal divisions.

He also praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi, saying the Centre is extending significant support for Bihar’s development, and urged workers to applaud the Prime Minister.

The Rs 1,198.86 crore package announced on Tuesday includes Rs 53 crore for the reconstruction of Bettiah Maharaja Stadium, Rs 12.45 crore for Degree College, Madhubani, Rs 77.70 crore for Don Canal Road, Rs 145 crore for Amvaman Power Grid, Rs 73.16 crore for Barwat Sena Pathrighat Road, and Rs 51.54 crore for Lavkush Park, Valmikinagar, along with several other infrastructure and welfare schemes

4th T20I: NZ PM Christopher Luxon dons commentary hat at Eden Park, lauds Phillips’ blitz Auckland, Oct 30 (IANS) New Zealand Prime Minister Christopher Luxon traded his political responsibilities for cricket commentary during Blackcaps’ fourth T20I against India here at Eden Park PM Luxon took to social media to share the glimpses from the commentary box and lavished praise on Glenn Phillips for his batting masterclass and the team’s overall batting effort. “In the commentary box at Eden Park tonight for the @BLACKCAPS v India. Unreal innings from Glenn Phillips and a huge effort with the bat from the Blackcaps,” the New Zealand PM posted on X. Phillips (107 from 49 balls), arguably the batter of the series so far, smashed his third T20I century, while Bracewell also hit 65 from 25 balls to help New Zealand pile up their highest-ever T20I total and also the highest by any team against India in the format. This surpassed New Zealand’s previous highest score of 254/5, which they had smashed four years ago against Scotland, and is the most by any team against India, going past the previous 257/3 that England had hit in Southampton earlier this year. Phillips has been the batter of the series, having hit an 82 not out and 70 in the first two matches before his 107 in the fourth game. He was dismissed by Nitish in the final over when he miscued a lofted drive to Abhishek at deep extra covers, but the Kiwis have put up a record total against India as Nathan Smith finished with a four on the final ball. India have already sealed the five-match series comfortably after victories in the opening three games. In the third T20I, India openers Abhishek Sharma (113) and Vaibhav Sooryavanshi (45) stitched together a powerplay display for the record books, piling on 118 runs in six overs as they chased down 199 runs off just 13.2 overs against New Zealand. This was the second-quickest chase of a 190-run target or more (with 40 deliveries remaining), second only to Estonia’s chase of 193 against Cyprus in 2024, which they completed with 42 deliveries to spare.
