Nitish Kumar's goodwill and development-oriented China visit

The Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar must make his chinese a grand success. He is leaving on Sunday for China on a goodwill tour with a high-powered delegation. The pragmatic, development-oriented, secular-minded, politically shrewed like him has rightly decided to visit the Asian giant and our neighbour China to learn its experiences about how to speed up development of the state of Bihar, which is under his stewardship.Engineer-turned politician Nitish Kumar, CM of Bihar, will certainly have a lot of experiences from the Chinese leaders and officials about how fast they developed in a very short span of time, that dazzles not only only Asia and America but also the entire world. Whatever high-handed activities China may carry out around our border, its achievement in developing by implementing economic globalisation is praiseworthy. And its must be emulated on the front of development. Undoubtedly, since Nitish Kumar became the Chief Minister of Bihar, revolutionary change for betterment in every sphere of life started visible there and the state again moved to get back its pre-eminent position of 50s and early 60s. Bihar during the 15 years of Lalu-Rabri Devi regime plunged into anarchy, chaos, lawlessness and darkness. The paralysed state got movement with the taking over of Nitish Kumar as Chief Minister. It is limping back on the path of all-round development. Though the credit goes to former Minister Lalu Prasad for giving voice to the voiceless which brought awakening among them, he completely failed to utilise the large support in return for his contribution to the weaker sections of society in the development of the state. He used people’s support only for the aggrandisement of his family political pusuit that ultimately proved to be detrimental to the state and his brand of politics.Nitish Kumar in his second stint with massive mandate of the people has already started his mission of the development of the state and his China visit is a part of it. China’s stride in development is exemplary despite it being a Communist country where no voice of dissent is tolerated by the government.So, it is natural to understand that Nitish Kumar will learn there no lesson in democracy but only in development. China’s all-round development and fastest economic growth place it in competition and rivalry with world’s sole super power the USA.
