The former BJP president, who concluded a three-day tour of the poll-bound state, promised that the NDA will carry forward the march towards progress that Bihar has witnessed "with PM Narendra Modi above and CM Nitish Kumar below".
"I have been here to seek the blessings of the people of Bihar, which has been like a pothole we filled up in the last 20 years, and we propose to build a grand structure on the firm ground that is now in place. I plead with the people not to trust those who would bring back jungle raj, wearing a new mask," Shah told 'Bihar Samagam', a conclave jointly organised by ABP News and Hindustan.

The ugly Indian and other stories of racism
I was asked an interesting question last week: Are Indians racist?
