2005 fallout on Lalu, Nitish villages
The Morning Standard
|November 02, 2025
IN Bihar’s political heartland, two villages—Kalyan Bigha in Nalanda and Ful waria in Gopalganj — stand as contrasting portraits of their most illustrious sons, Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and former Chief Minister Lalu Prasad Yadav.
Kalyan Bigha, Nitish Ku mar's ancestral village, mirrors the CM's focus on development and order. The once-sleepy hamlet now gleams with smooth roads, solar-lit lanes, and uninter rupted electricity. On the spectrum's far-end, former CM Lalu Prasad Yadav's Fulwaria reflects the fading imprint of a political era long past. Once popularly referred to as a “mini-secretariat” during the RJD’s rule from 1990 to 2005, Fulwaria is now lost in the tedious warp of time, with whatever once built now slowly withering away.
