What next ….. Create a wider, diverse and a passionate network of Biharis. Involve more local partners in this effort, we have enough talent and passion in

India. Partner effectively with local, national and international private and govt.

agencies to bring focus on Bihar. Share the expertise, knowledge and diverse experience to the folks back in

Bihar. This will mean partnering with govt. institutions, MNC's and big corporate houses as well to bring about some grass root level changes. .

Promoting BIHAR through web. Present a united face of Bihar intellectual and social talent to the world. This

means we need to partner with Biharis and even Non biharis who are willing to help us in our effort.

Focus on backward and forward integration. So the connection with State govt,officials and people on ground is critical.
