CM Nitish’s gift before elections
This announcement of CM Nitish Kumar before the elections can prove to be very effective for the government in the Bihar elections. Because the opposition often attacked the government over these schemes by raising the issue of common people. Now the government has more than doubled the amount under the Social Security Pension Scheme, which will prove to be very helpful for the livelihood of the poor and helpless sections.
