It is
an excellent idea. A good township
with good and secure residential
complexes, with all modern amenities
like standby power, own water
supply, security, a shopping complex
nearby and good road connection with
main city, railhead and airport will
attract many Non-Resident Biharis
from abroad and also those trying to
settle down in other cities of India
for getting good civic amenities.
Many Biharis who have gone elsewhere
in search of livelihood can settle
down in their home state. This will
bring wealth into the state which
will create jobs in providing
services and benefits will trickle
down residents of state.
Many of such people may contribute
their talent, time and money in
social development and upliftment of
society.
State should provide some incentives
to attract good real estate
developers. - Mithilesh Kumar,

Yes
Ambuj, you are correct, this would
help the growth in a planned manner.
I am sure they have thought of
institutional area in and around
Khagaul because I saw lot of
schools, colleges and other
institutions coming on route to
Bihta via Khagaul passing thru
Shivala in my recent trip.
I guess Bihta would be one of the
satellite township which is
developing.
I wonder if the Govt has planned
properly for this. Another recent
news I read on PatnaDaily was IIT
shifted to Amhara which is at a
distance from Bihta. In that case
the road from
Anisabad-Khagaul-Shivala-Naubatpur-Bikram-Amhara
should be widened.
It would be a better direct approach
road to IIT.
I saw it was being repaired and was
a relief this time to drive on
despite a rough stretch.
Another route already being widened
was Anisabad-Khagaul-Shivala-Bihta.
This would be little worrisome road
to reach IIT but would benefit
institutions coming on this stretch
and be an Ideal base for the
satellite town between Patna and
Bihta.
If timely measures are not taken to
develop Bihta properly allocating
residential, industrial, IT park,
and institutional area seperately,
it could be a disaster.
The present bypass from Anisabad to
Fatuha cannot be termed as a Bypass
now which is Part of NH31.
A ring road kind of stretch is
required for heavy vehicles not
destined to Patna but going to
Fatwa, Rajgir, Barh and connect it
to NH31.
And what better suggestion from you,
this stretch connecting Bihta to
Fatwa (NH31).
A bridging road is a solution
between NH98 (Patna-Naubatpur-Bikram
to connect NH31 from the outer
periphery.
NH98 being extended from either
Naubatpur or Khagaul connecting NH31
at Deedarganj will solve the
purpose.
It would solve two purposes, would
develop two satellite townships -
one being Bihta and Fatwa is already
a potential industrial area.
Both would work wonders due to this
connectivity and result in more
commercial/business activity
generating more revenues for the
government and employment.
Bihta can be developed like Gurgaon
(mix of IT, institutional and
industrial) and Fatuha like
Faridabad (primarily industrial).
I hope the Bihar government would
look into this. - Amarendra Kumar

I
