Union Minister Giriraj Singh recently made an earnest appeal for the Bharat Ratna, India's most prestigious civilian award, to be bestowed upon Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and former Odisha CM Naveen Patnaik. In a press conference held in Begusarai, Singh eloquently praised the remarkable contributions of both leaders in their respective states.
Singh commended Naveen Patnaik for his unwavering dedication and service to Odisha over the years, highlighting his enduring tenure as a pivotal factor in the state's development. He also took the opportunity to applaud Nitish Kumar for his exceptional leadership in steering Bihar out of what he referred to as the "jungle raj" era.

However, Singh noted the significant improvements in roads, hospitals, and schools under Nitish Kumar's governance.
Singh went on to stress the importance of recognizing the contributions of such leaders at a national level, stating that their efforts have positively impacted the lives of millions and set high standards in governance. He firmly believes that Nitish Kumar and Naveen Patnaik are deserving of the Bharat Ratna for their unwavering commitment to their states and their people. In conclusion, Singh expressed his hope that the government would consider his request and honor these exemplary leaders with the prestigious award.
