Ravi Verma go to hell for your illogical point no 6. Surnames exist in WB and the NE states. Show me who apart from settled Biharis and people using "traditional marriage" using castes. And just in case you didnt note - Many people have already dropped surnames in Bihar. And because you think like surname=caste criminals like Pappu have added Yadav to their surname. 5. Poeple of Mauritrius are of Bihari origin but they have settled with hard work there. that is why it is better, in India average migrant Biharis (not all) carry their hangover to whereevr they go 4. Bihar is not only lacking in infrastructure but also in law and order. The system also suffers from short sightedness as is evident from flood industry wvery year 3. Power corrupts and same is in any political system including democracy. Every state suffers from corrupt politcians but still they progress Be proud for being Indian but if you want to feel proud of being BIhari, please do not underplay the shortcomings. Work on bettering them please.
