In the letter, Tejashwi raised the issues of employment and migrant crisis in the state. He also reminded the prime minister of the special status for Bihar stating that the NDA had promised it in 2015.
“Respected Prime Minister, all Biharis once again congratulate you on your arrival to Bihar. Have written a letter to you. Hope you will not forget the promises made to Biharis in the last 6 years and will fulfill them,’ Tejashwi tweeted.
