i read a lot of postings which said the state of affairs in bihar is very bad. some even went to the extent of saying tht these bihari's go to other states and RUIN their image too. i agree with u all tht the state of affairs in bihar is bad. but its only becoz of the gr8 lalu prasad yadav n rabri devi. n as far as the image of other states is concerned, which supposedly bihari's are ruining. come on, give me a break. these ppl shud go n chk the stats first. even though bihar's education system is bad compared to other states (including kerala which has the highest literacy rate), bihari's r the one who excel in all top notch exams (IAS, IPS, IIT's, IIM's, etc). to my amazement however, many ppl in southern india have never heard of IIT's!!! n these r the ppl who turn up later to criticize others as lagging behind. i feel like laughing on such losers. which state does not have any crime? none. situation in maharastra, karnataka, punjab, WB, TN, anywhere. its bad. n its nt tht bihari's go n do crimes at all the places. statistics and figures can prove all these things. bihari's have been pushed to the stone age by the bloody politicians. but still they excel. n Mr Satish Saxena. Bihari's are proud of themselves. wat shud we be ashamed of? politics? doctors? and ya. i am a BIHARI. and i am proud of it, watever may be the condition of bihar. n i got no qualms of it. its my motherland. n i hope every indian loves his/her motherland.
