interview with priya das from bihar, who came under fire for burning the hindu scripture "manusmriti" and using it to both cook chicken and light her cigarette.

adding this because it seems necessary for some reason and in anticipation of this post potentially breaking containment; due to the debate happening in the US regarding the banning of books from school libraries, I'd request all of you to please consider that this book is foundational to the prevalence of practices such as caste-based bigotry and endogamy, and that burning it as a political stance has been in practice since the 1940s. do not argue about freedom of speech in the notes.

Sujani is a form of embroidery from Bihar in India. It is usually a quilt or bed spread, which was earlier made of old clothes, but is now generally made of easily available fabric with embroidery done with the most simple stitches with motifs narrating stories.

The word Sujani is a compound word of su meaning 'easy and facilitating' and jan meaning 'birth'. The earliest known traditional practice of making the embroidered Sujani quilt is traced to the 18th century. Its basic purpose was to give a soft cover to the newly born babies immediately after birth. It was then made with pieces of cloth in different colors derived from used saris and dhotis by sewing them together, adopting a simple running stitch. This process involved use of three or four patches of old saris or dhotis, fitted one over the other and then quilting them together using the thread that was also drawn from the discarded garments. Motifs expressing the mother's for her newborn child were sewn on the quilt, generally done with a chain stitch in dark color. The motifs sewn on the quilt represented��sun and cloud, indicative of life-giving forces, fertility symbols, sacred animals, and mythical animals to protect against evil forces, and to attract blessings from the gods. Use of different shades of threads symbolized life's forces such as red, symbolic of blood and yellow denoting the sun. Sujani clothes and quilts are usually meant for winter wear.

As a guy from Bihar I basically get racially abused by my classmate who try to be cool and just say shit like "bhaagja bihari" and I still don't get to this why

Bihar has had the greatest empires in Indian history with two of the most prominent dynasties like the guptas and the chandraguptas yet we still get shifted on like we are nothing we did the most to preserve Hinduism when islamic oppression occured across india. My people gave their everything for this damned nation and its culture yet we still get treated like dog water. Meanwhile the jaats and the Punjabis get glorified.I don't hate any Punjabis or jaats. I respect their culture and know that they have their own customs of doing things. Yet I can't understand why the hell can one community be so glorified yet another so hates and racially abused I have seen people walk away from me when I say I am from bihar. People say racist shit about me and other people from bihar and I just can't understand why

At present, the Bihar government's caste survey is the only available one that demonstrates the share of each individual caste - across religion and different constitutional categories - in their access to education, housing, income, mobility and technology. Bihar, in total, has 215 castes across SCs (19 percent of the population), STs (1.6 percent), Backward Classes (27 percent), Extremely Backward Classes (36 percent) and upper castes (15 percent). The Bihar government defines a poor family household as one whose monthly income is less than six thousand rupees. Fewer than three percent of Brahmin families meet this criterion, while the figure is over forty percent for SCs and STs, indicating the upper-caste monopoly over economic resources… Among the upper castes, over 50 percent have pucca houses, while 5.89 percent have huts and 0.31 percent were homeless. Among Dalits, only 24 percent have pucca houses, while 23 percent live in huts. After Adivasis, Dalits also have the largest homeless population.

Asif Ahmad: A Young Entrepreneur from Bihar

Bihar, the state I proudly call home, has long faced significant challenges in key areas such as healthcare, education, and infrastructure. Growing up in Bihar, I personally witnessed the struggles of talented individuals forced to leave their home state in search of better opportunities. This experience became the driving force behind my mission to transform Bihar into a thriving hub where every individual—no matter their background—can achieve their full potential without having to migrate for a better life. Over the years, I have focused on addressing some of Bihar’s most pressing issues: limited access to quality education, a shortage of healthcare services, and the need for sustainable infrastructure.

Education: A Cornerstone for Empowerment

Education has always been at the heart of my vision for Bihar. As a young person here, I saw the immense potential in our youth but recognized the stark gap in access to quality education. Many young people had to leave Bihar to pursue their academic goals, and this migration was a barrier to both personal growth and regional development. After returning to India from my studies abroad, I focused on strengthening local institutions like Madhubani Medical College and the Madhubani Institute of Nursing & Paramedical Sciences. These institutions provide world-class education in Bihar, offering opportunities for local youth to thrive in their home state. By training students locally, particularly in healthcare, we aim to ensure that Bihar retains its brightest minds and creates a sustainable environment for them to contribute meaningfully to the state’s growth.

Healthcare: Making Healthcare Accessible and Affordable

Access to quality healthcare has been another critical issue I’ve worked to address. Growing up in rural Bihar, I saw firsthand how families struggled to access basic medical services. The nearest healthcare facilities were often far away, and the cost of treatment was prohibitive for many. The shortage of trained medical professionals was also a major barrier to care. In 2019, I became deeply involved with Madhubani Medical College, which offers an MBBS program and is attached to a 600-bed hospital providing affordable treatment. With consultation fees as low as Rs 30 and room charges just Rs 150 per day, the hospital aims to make quality healthcare accessible to everyone. But this initiative is about more than just addressing immediate needs; it’s about building a self-sustaining healthcare infrastructure that can serve future generations of Biharis.

Infrastructure: Building the Foundation for Growth

For Bihar to truly prosper, modernization of its infrastructure is essential. This includes building reliable roads, improving transportation networks, and upgrading utilities. As part of Astaus India Pvt Ltd, the company I co-founded, we are working on various infrastructure projects aimed at improving connectivity, boosting the local economy, and enhancing the quality of life for Bihar’s residents. From eco-friendly construction to sustainable urban planning, we are committed to creating modern infrastructure that supports long-term economic growth and ensures Bihar can compete with more developed regions.

Creating an Ecosystem of Opportunity

Beyond education, healthcare, and infrastructure, my broader vision for Bihar is to foster an environment of opportunity, particularly for its youth. By focusing on entrepreneurship, job creation, and economic empowerment, I want Bihar to become a state where young people don’t feel the need to leave for better opportunities. Supporting local entrepreneurs and small businesses is key to creating a thriving, self-sustaining economy. This will encourage innovation, generate employment, and help the state build an ecosystem that empowers its citizens.

A Broader Mission: Empowering India

While Bihar will always be at the center of my efforts, I also recognize that the challenges of education and healthcare are not unique to this state. That’s why I am also working on initiatives outside Bihar, such as the establishment of Kashmir Medical College, the first private medical college in the region. By addressing disparities in education and healthcare across India, my broader mission is to create an equitable system that benefits all citizens, regardless of where they live.

Looking Ahead: A Brighter Future for Bihar

Looking to the future, I envision a Bihar that thrives—a state where every individual has the opportunity to succeed, where youth can find fulfilling careers at home, and where accessible healthcare and modern infrastructure support the overall well-being of the population. I believe that with the right investments in sustainable development, a focus on innovation, and collaboration across all sectors, Bihar can become a leader in economic and social progress in India. The journey will take time, but with each step, we are laying the foundation for a more prosperous and equitable future. Bihar’s transformation is not just a dream; it is a vision I am committed to making a reality, one initiative at a time.
