This is not the first time that this has kind of statement was made in Bengal against people of Bihar.""The people of Bihar are working in different states, in different positions, in different categories. If one day they decide that they will not work, then I am sure that the heartbeat of the nation will stop. Everyone should understand this before making statements," stated the RJD leader.Blaming the central and state government for the condition of the people of Bihar, Jha said that Bihar has been turned into labourer supply state.He said, "Over the last years, the Centre never tried to bring investment in Bihar. When it comes to Bihar, a dozen trains are given, in which our brothers and sisters get loaded like cattle and go to other states as labourers.""This suits the present character of capitalism.
