#WATCH# | Bihar CM Samrat Choudhary attends Gram Sansad–Bihar Chapter programme in Patna The CM says, "I believe suggestions should also emerge through the Gram Sansad. We need to discuss how Gram Sansad can advance the vision of a 'Viksit Bharat 2047' envisioned by our respected PM. Former Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar envisioned a prosperous Bihar, and the year 2037 will mark a significant milestone for the state. We must also envision how we can make Bihar prosperous during this period....Democracy is divided into three tiers. People often say there are three-levels powers in this country: the PM, the CM, and the DM. However, I believe that the most powerful person in this country is the 'Mukhiya' (Village Head), who holds actual authority. They possess the most power and handle the most work. Elections for MLAs or MPs might be easier, but the election to become a 'Mukhiya' becomes increasingly difficult as you go down to the grassroots level..."

On Doctors' Day, greetings to our dedicated doctors, whose hard work, compassion and commitment form the backbone of India's healthcare system. Their tireless efforts, often in the most challenging circumstances, have earned the trust and gratitude of countless people. Over the last decade, India has made significant strides in strengthening our healthcare ecosystem. The number of medical colleges has more than doubled, while undergraduate and postgraduate medical seats have expanded substantially. This unprecedented growth is creating greater opportunities for aspiring doctors, building a stronger healthcare workforce and ensuring that quality medical care reaches every corner of the country. As we work towards building a Viksit Bharat, our doctors will continue to play a pivotal role in promoting preventive healthcare, advancing medical research, embracing innovation and delivering affordable, accessible healthcare for all. #NationalDoctorsDay#
