Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has said that Biharis never known for there begging attitude but they have achieved their goals by their diligence, intelligence and merit. There was a time when being a Bihari was a matter of joke and humiliation in the rest part of the country.

They have made their existence and identity in rest part of the country by their intelligence and labour but they never forget their language, tradition and culture, which is a significance character for the people of Bihar. It can be seen in Mauritious where still Bhojpuri is in use.
