You might have grown up listening disturbing sound ‘Oye Bihari’ but now scenario is totally changed.
 If your present becomes bright, your future looks brighter and people give credit to your past. Now people have started seeing our past and  relate it with our present. Bihar, the ancient land of Buddha, has witness golden period of Indian history. It is the same land where the seeds of the first republic were sown and which cultivated the first crop of democracy. Such fertile is the soil that has given birth to innumerous intellectuals which spread the light of knowledge and wisdom not only in the country but in the whole world.

The Industries of Bihar have started playing a very positive role in the overall development of all the citizens of Bihar and in this context looking for all sort of talents from all corners of the Nation and the globe.
