19 Years in Power, 3.6 km in Concrete—That’s Bihar’s Development Model
Nineteen years. Nearly two decades in power. And what does bihar have to show for it? A grand total of 3.6 kilometers of Metro rail in Patna. That’s not infrastructure—that’s an insult dressed up as achievement. Nitish Kumar, once hailed as Sushasan Babu, has turned into the data-face of stagnation. Bihar’s youth leave for delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore in search of jobs, while their chief minister is busy celebrating less than 4 km of Metro after ruling for longer than some monarchs.
1. 19 Years = 3.6 Kilometers
That’s less than 200 meters a year. At this speed, patna will get a full Metro network by the year 3025. Congratulations, future generations!
2. delhi and lucknow Zoom Ahead, patna Crawls
While cities across india built sprawling Metro networks, Bihar’s capital crawled to 3.6 km. Other states moved at bullet train speed, Nitish moved at bullock cart speed.
3. Sushasan Babu Turned Into “Status Quo Babu”
Nitish’s brand was good governance. But 19 years later, bihar is still at the bottom in per capita income, migration continues, and its big urban dream is just a 3.6 km joke.
4. PR > Progress
Every ribbon-cutting is broadcast, every announcement amplified, but the ground reality is empty tracks, ghost stations, and no real change in people’s lives.
5. Bihar’s youth Deserve More Than Excuses
Millions of young Biharis leave the state every year to find work. Nitish promised to bring development to them, but gave them only 3.6 km of Metro. Jobs, education, and dignity are still boarding trains to other states.
6. Longevity Without Legacy
19 years in power is not an achievement—it’s a responsibility. And Nitish Kumar’s only concrete legacy is literally just 3.6 km of concrete.
🚨 Closing Punch:
After 19 years in the CM’s chair, Nitish Kumar’s report card reads: Migration unchecked. Poverty unaddressed. Infrastructure invisible. Metro length: 3.6 km. bihar didn’t need a caretaker—it needed a visionary. Sadly, all it got was a chief minister whose biggest achievement after two decades is less than the distance of a morning walk.
