Article needs to be rewritten with a neutral perspective edit

Bihar remains a relatively less developed state in India. Someone with enough expertise on the subject can add the developmental challenges faced by Bihar that caused the lag in its economic development. The article focuses on recent improvements in Bihar, with very little emphasize on Bihar's development challenges. It is also written in a style of advertisement for current government.

Dr. Singh's comment on this article edit

Dr. Singh has reviewed this Wikipedia page, and provided us with the following comments to improve its quality:


Data mentioned in this article are quite old and do not present the true picture of the Bihar's economy in general and contribution of agricultural sector in the state. There are also some misleading information given, e.g. it is mentioned the Sudha brand name for COMFED products was started by some IAS officer,Mr. R.C.Sinha, I find no such reference. It is popular knowledge that experts from NDDB, led by Dr Punjrath first established the Patna Dairy Project and then took it forward under various phases of Operation Flood.

Authors and contributors may be asked to revise the data with current/latest information available, so that the page presents a balanced view of the state's economy.

In the current form the looks like a compilation of various media reports which a highly biased towards reporting the state governments view points.


We hope Wikipedians on this talk page can take advantage of these comments and improve the quality of the article accordingly.

Dr. Singh has published scholarly research which seems to be relevant to this Wikipedia article:

Why bihar is backward? edit

Bihar is backward due to indian politics. in education list, bihar is on the last position due to corruption and intentional approach from the governments, both central and states.

every time trains are filled with double amount of passenger but there is no facilities, to improve the number of trains. all the trains from all the directions are always filled with double amount of people. but government is not taking care of this. a total fail from the political parties side.

Bihar isn't backwards, nor is it backwards because of politics. Bihar is actually derived from the Sanskrit and Pali word Vihara, which means "abode". --★Gooseflesh12★ (talk) 20:38, 4 July 2018 (UTC)Reply

Lead paragraph edit

Economy of Bihar is largely agriculture-based, but it also has a significant service-orientation.

GDP = ₹757026 crore (110 billion dollars) at market price (2021-22)[1]

GDP (at factor cost) = ₹954695 crore (130 billion dollars) (2019-20)[2]

The Lead paragraph look awkward so i am proposing to deleting it.--LostCitrationHunter (talk) 14:49, 16 October 2021 (UTC)Reply
