Bihar is in the midst of tremendous change. In recent years, there has been progress on multiple fronts, be it law and order, expansion of infrastructure, or the spread of primary education to the masses. Today, Bihar is one of the fastest growing states in the country and the Government of Bihar is committed to sustain this momentum. The true picture of Bihar is quite the reverse. The state's impressive growth can be attributed partly to the low base of the stagnating decade and partly the positive effect of a fairly rapid period of global growth (2003 to 2012).
