A 500 MW rooftop solar plan. No upfront cost. No taxpayer burden. Private firms will build, maintain, and sell power to the government. Smart? Absolutely. The real win? Government buildings across Bihar will soon slash electricity bills; and carbon footprints; at the same time. This isn’t just about solar panels. It’s about reimagining how public infrastructure pays for itself. While others chase big-ticket power plants, Bihar’s betting on rooftops; and the RESCO model could become a blueprint for other states. Add in ₹79 crore for pulse farming, ₹154 crore for digital agriculture, and new AIIMS and Kendriya Vidyalayas; and you’ve got a development agenda that’s both practical and visionary. Bihar’s playing the long game. Are others watching?
