Unfortunately, Bihar has failed miserably to take an advantage of this growth journey. Covid-19 provides another opportunity for Bihar to board the missed train of economic liberalization and IT reforms. India has vast untapped potential in Tier-2 and even Tier III locations which have the potential to be unlocked with the emergence of a distributed workforce which Covid19 has created. It’s high time for Bihar to capitalize its young demography, Bihar’s Atma Nirbhata would be incomplete without IT Revolution.
