Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar on Thursday distributed appointment letters to 9,888 candidates selected for Special Survey Assistant Settlement Officer and other related posts and asked the officials in the Revenue and Land Reforms department to complete the land survey before the assembly elections, slated to be held in 2025.
Addressing the event, the Bihar CM asserted that the land survey should be done before the assembly elections in the state. "I have said that these works (land surveys) must be done before the elections. If all these works are done before July 2025, it will be good. I bow to you (Additional Chief Secretary Deepak Kumar Singh) with folded hands. Shall I touch your feet? I say this to everyone, do it as soon as possible." He further said that 60 per cent of incidents of crime in Bihar occur mainly because of land-related disputes. "Now, with the appointment of 9,888 more officials, the department must complete the special survey and settlement of lands across the state by July 2025," the CM added. Nitish Kumar joined back the NDA bloc in January this year, after having developed "differences" with the Mahagathbandhan alliance. This was his fifth crossover in the past ten years, preceding his ninth time as the Chief Minister. This led to the collapse of the Mahagathbandhan government, after which the NDA government was formed in the state. (ANI)
