Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to visit Rajapakar block in north Bihar’s Vaishali district on November 21, 2026 to commemorate the completion of one year of the incumbent National Democratic Alliance (NDA) government in the state.
During his visit, Mr. Modi is expected to inaugurate the six-lane, 9.76-km long Kacchi Dargah-Bidupur cable-stayed bridge across the Ganga river, which connects the Kacchi Dargah in Deedarganj area of South Patna district to Bidupur near Hajipur in Vaishali district via the Raghopur diara (river) area. It will also lay the foundation stone for several projects in the state, including a park for which the state government has acquired 1,243 acres of land in Vaishali district.
On Monday (November 9, 2026), senior NDA leaders met and addressed mediapersons at the office of NDA ally Janata Dal-United (JD-U). Mr. Modi’s upcoming visit will be a milestone in Bihar’s industrial development, they said.
“The government will hold a grand event on November 20 at the Jaffarpatti industrial area in Vaishali district to complete the one-year tenure of the NDA government in Bihar, which PM Modi has agreed to attend,” State BJP president Sanjay Saraogi said, adding, “On this day, a new chapter in Bihar’s industrial growth will be written from the historic land of Vaishali.”
Leaders of all five NDA coalition partners – BJP, JD(U), Hindustani Awam Morcha-Secular (HAM-S), Lok Janshakti Party-Ram Vilas (LJP-RV) and Rashtriya Lok Morcha (RLM) were present in the meeting.
The Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) has accused the Center of taking loans for projects started by others. “PM Modi is coming to inaugurate the six-lane Kacchi Dargah-Bidupur bridge, but the project was initiated by the mahagathbandhan (grand alliance) government when I was deputy chief minister in 2015,” said RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav, Leader of Opposition in the Bihar Assembly. “We have done the work but someone else is cutting the tape,” claimed Mr Yadav, a three-time MLA from Raghopur in Vaishali district.
Winter session
The winter session of the Bihar Assembly is scheduled to begin on November 30 and end on December 4, 2026. The upcoming short but crucial assembly session will have five sessions in five days, with the Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary-led government presenting the second supplementary budget for the financial year 2026-27.
The supplementary budget is likely to be discussed on December 3. On the same day, the budget allocation bill will also be presented and processed. Several legislative bills and other official matters were also prepared for the winter session of the Assembly.
