In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Minister Pradhan stated, “If good governance prevails in Bihar, trucks will run smoothly, and the issues faced by truck associations will be resolved on priority.” He described truck owners and drivers as the backbone of the Indian economy and emphasized that roads are not just pathways but arteries of national progress.

Highlighting the role of transportation in driving trade, industry, and employment, Pradhan said, “When roads are strong, the economy gains momentum, and new job opportunities are created.”

The Union Minister contrasted the current pace of development with past governance, stating that during Lalu Prasad Yadav’s tenure, road construction remained confined to speeches. In contrast, under Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and the NDA government, Bihar has witnessed historic progress in road infrastructure.

Looking ahead to the upcoming assembly elections, Pradhan asserted that the new NDA government, expected to be formed on November 14, will accelerate this progress. He promised concrete solutions to the challenges faced by truck owners and transport businesses and pledged to make Bihar a leader in industry, trade, and infrastructure.

He concluded by reaffirming the alliance’s commitment to realizing the vision of a “Developed India – Developed Bihar” under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister Nitish Kumar.
