Prime Minister Narendra Modi today congratulated Jharkhand Chief Minister Raghubar Das on launching the 'cashless Jharkhand campaign'.
The Prime Minister also extended good wishes to the Chief Minister when the latter informed him that the state had launched the campaign on December 2 to encourage cashless system, an official release said.
Calling on Modi in New Delhi during the day, Das invited the PM to lay the foundation stone for a four-lane bridge over the Ganga in Sahibganj in January, to which the Prime Minister gave his consent, the release said.
Approximately Rs 2,000 crore would be spent on the bridge, which would give new speed in the development of Sahibganj and Santhal Pargana region along with giving fillip to industry in Bihar and the eastern region, Das told Modi.
