Bihar Development Trust views

Dear Friends,

I am reading lot of passionate mails that are send by the members. I find all mails right from the perspective with which they are being written. Suddenly we are flooded with negative and disturbing news that are hurting our identity India.

I was thinking from the employment creation side. I am disturbed by the fact that we are not able to provide employment to those who are coming back. Each of them who are coming has a marketable skill which they can not sell in Bihar. In other words, they can not earn money in Bihar either because they have no such industry or services or no one is willing to pay similar prices on purchasing power terms which they are getting in Mumbai or Maharashtra.

In economics, there is concept of reservation price. It means I will prefer to remain unemployed unless some one pays me my reservation( minimum acceptable ) price. So, this will be at work in Bihar for those who are coming back. Depending on staying power of each family, the reservation price will be high or low.

I hope that I am able to reach that stage where I can create millions of job through agri business, dairy, micro finance and handicrafts integration .
I need support of fellow people to join us. Bihar is an oppurtunity . All we need one among us spotting an oppurtunity and jumping right into it . Believe in an idea and execute it giving your sweat, blood and life and It will be done. There is chance of making billions of dollar in Bihar in field like fruit and vegetable, IT, Education, health, manufacturing, tourism, consulting, wellness etc.

There is need of people who can sustain themselves for 2-3 years and start something in Bihar. We are the example . Although we are still in loss but we hope to be profitable by 2009. Till then we will go on. Samman Foundation is another examples. There are other people who are doing right things.

Its the people who are born in 1980s , have the responsibilities to build the bihar. We should not shirk the responsibility. Ultimately I am seeing a day when all biharis are getting jobs in home state , that too at higher level and peole from maharashtra, punjab, and south are coming to work in organisation floated by us.

I may be dreaming but my conviction in Bihar story is increasing day by day. It is due to some individuals like atul, chandan,rajiv, mayank, samir, sanjay, ajit, ashok, manoj, saroj, tvs who have believed and imparted their infectious optimism in me and my friends.

With best wishes

Ravi Chandra
