00:00The general budget of the KN government is about to come and the people of Bihar are also hopeful.
00:07A letter has also been sent to the Minister of Environment from the Bihar Industries Association.
00:13We have with us the head of the Bihar Industries Association, K.P.S. Keshri.
00:18Mr. Keshri, what kind of demand have you sent from here?
00:23We have sent a long letter of 4-5 pages.
00:28It is related to taxation and some of it is related to financing.
00:32As we have said, we will have to give Rs. 50,000 crores to the state for 10 years.
00:41Some of it is related to transportation.
00:48The transportation through the river is the cheapest.
00:54We have a number of national riverways in the Ganges.
01:00But we have not been able to use it for years because it collects waste.
01:07We have said that we will have to do a dredging and make a new river.
01:14We have said that all over the country,
01:19like you have made aspirational districts,
01:23you should look at the backward districts and give them specific funding.
01:30You should give them income tax or a higher rate of investment allowance.
01:37The government has a lot of tools.
01:41If we do that, we believe that 15-20 districts will be covered in Bihar.
01:47We will be able to move forward with the industrialization process.
01:56You have asked for Rs. 50,000 crores every year.
01:59Is it for the industries or for the whole of Bihar?
02:01No, it is for the whole of Bihar.
02:02Basically, it is for infrastructure development.
02:05What is happening is that we are lagging behind.
02:08Last year, we were physically present there and told the government that
02:14it is the government's duty to remove the regional imbalance.
02:21As you can see, there is a flood.
02:24Why is there a flood?
02:26The water from the other side of the country, Nepal, flows at a higher level than ours.
02:31There, both the river bed and the water flow at a higher level.
02:35If you look at the area of Kosi,
02:37the level of the river bed is higher than that of the land outside.
02:46So, even if there is a little water, it overflows.
02:54How many pages are there?
02:56I think there are 7-8 pages.
02:59Look at this.
03:03We have given this to them.
03:05This is for 7-8 pages.
03:07We have given this to them.
03:09We have given this to them.
03:15If you look at this,
03:17we have told you that the most important thing we have said is this.
03:25You want to put this.
03:27Look at this point.
03:29Why are we asking for 50,000 crores?
03:31The reason we are asking for 50,000 crores is that
03:34we want to build an industrial corridor in Calcutta.
03:40Our state does not have that much money.
03:42Our land is also expensive.
03:44We want to build an industrial township on that corridor.
03:48The government will also want to build it.
03:50We are giving suggestions.
03:52What is the meaning of an industrial township?
03:54Noida is a city.
03:56It is not a city.
03:58It was imagined as an industrial township.
04:00Delhi to Bombay is an industrial township.
04:04On that corridor,
04:06the city is being built in 100 square kilometers.
04:12We have asked for money for this.
04:15We have asked for money for a smart city.
04:18Until the urbanization is not done,
04:20our urbanization level is very low.
04:22It used to be 11%.
04:24Now it has been increased a little.
04:26It has been shown on the paper.
04:2815-17%
04:30What is the hope this time?
04:32I hope that
04:34we are not asking for a grant.
04:38Our suggestion is that
04:40we give an interest-free loan.
04:42The government has provided this
04:44in a few places.
04:46It has been done in tourism.
04:48The infrastructure deficit
04:50that you have,
04:52you buy it and build it.
04:54We will give you an interest-free loan
04:56for 25 years.
04:58We are saying that
05:00you give 50,000 crores
05:02to the state
05:04in an interest-free loan.
05:06After 25 years,
05:08you will get it back
05:10when our level rises.
05:12You may be surprised now,
05:14but it is true.
05:16If you look at our electricity consumption,
05:18it is above 300.
05:20If we look at the national average,
05:22it is above 1300.
05:24We are at one-fourth of that.
05:26How will we progress?
05:28If you look at our per capita income,
05:30it is 60,000 rupees.
05:34If we look at the national level,
05:38it is 1,84,000 crores.
05:40It is a difference of one third.
05:42To move forward,
05:44we will have to do something.
05:46We are asking for a loan.
05:48I don't think there is a need for a grant.
05:50There is a need for a loan.
05:52If we get a loan and an interest-free loan,
05:54we will move forward.
05:56K.P.S. Kesari is the
05:58head of the Bihar Industry Association.
06:00He has sent a request
06:02and a demand of 10 pages
06:04to the Central Minister, Sitaraman.
06:06He hopes that
06:08the 50,000 rupees that we are asking
06:10every year from Bihar
06:12will help in the development
06:14of the industrial area in Bihar
06:16and will help in many areas.
06:18For example, in electricity,
06:20per capita income,
06:22and in the industries.
