PM Modi greets Bihar CM Nitish Kumar on 70th birthday

Prime Minister Narendra Modi greeted Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar who turned 70 on Monday.

''Best wishes to Bihar CM @NitishKumarji on his birthday. Under his leadership, the NDA government in Bihar is taking numerous steps for developing the state. Praying for his long and healthy life,'' Modi tweeted.

Governor Phagu Chauhan came out with a message greeting the chief minister while Assembly Speaker Vijay Kumar Sinha read out a statement on the floor of the House.

The leader of the opposition, Tejashwi Yadav, who is away canvassing for the RJD in poll-bound Assam and West Bengal, also came out with a tweet greeting the chief minister on his birthday.

Several programmes are being held by JD(U) leaders to celebrate Kumar's birthday. A huge cake weighing 70 pounds is to be cut at the party's state headquarters here.

Kumar's close aide and minister Ashok Choudhary has planned the plantation of 70 saplings at his official residence, as a mark of respect for the chief minister's enthusiasm for environmental preservation.

The Bihar Chief Minister has been known for his simplicity and honesty. During his tenure as the chief minister of Bihar, the JD-U stalwart has been credited with re-laying roads that had virtually ceased to exist, building of bridges, completing long-delayed infrastructure projects, appointing teachers and ensuring that doctors attended health centres. He also cracked down on criminals who had strong links to politics and speedy trials were ordered.
