ShareMuzaffarpur: Bihar chief minister Nitish Kumar said that a signature campaign would soon begin in support for the demand of special status to the state.
Inaugurating a bridge on the Gandak river at Aathar village in Bochahan block of the district by Rural Engineering Organisation (REO) yesterday, Kumar said, "We have planned to obtain signatures of over one crore people for the demand."
"The list of signatures will be handed over to president Pratibha Patil and prime minister Dr Manmohan Singh for considering Bihar's demand," he said.
