Patna, November 9, 2026 (Yes Punjab News)
Preparations have intensified across Bihar for Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s proposed visit on November 21, with the ruling NDA alliance planning to make the programme a major political and development event.
Modi is scheduled to address a public rally in the Jafarpatti industrial area of Vaishali district. Administrative preparations are also underway for the inauguration and foundation-stone laying of projects linked to the Vaishali industrial corridor.
The visit comes a day after the NDA government in Bihar completes one year in office on November 20. The alliance plans to highlight its achievements and present its development agenda during the Prime Minister’s programme.
Projects expected to feature include a six-lane bridge over the Ganga in the Raghopur area and initiatives linked to the proposed industrial corridor, spread across around 1,650 acres in Vaishali.
Other projects being discussed in the context of Bihar’s development include the Patna-Purnea Expressway, a proposed Central University in Bhagalpur and a greenfield airport at Sultanganj. However, the final list of projects and announcements for the visit is yet to be confirmed.
JD(U) state president Umesh Kushwaha said all NDA constituents had begun preparations to ensure a grand welcome for Modi.
“Whenever the Prime Minister visits Bihar, he brings various gifts in the form of development initiatives for the state. We have high expectations of him this time as well. We want to make his visit historic, with public participation breaking previous records,” Kushwaha said.
BJP state president Sanjay Saraogi said the visit would mark the completion of one year of the NDA government in Bihar.
“All constituent parties are united in preparing for the Prime Minister’s visit. He has special affection for Bihar and has consistently supported the state’s development. We expect a major announcement for Bihar on November 21,” Saraogi said.
