A torch was lit at Miller High School ground in Patna on Wednesday, October 7, 2026 — and with it, Bihar Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary set in motion the Seva Jyoti Yatra, a grassroots outreach march under the BJP's 'Seva Sankalp Abhiyan'. The event drew a large crowd and carried the twin weight of a mobilisation drive and a tribute to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's 25 years of public service.
Torch in hand, yatra on the road
CM Choudhary personally ignited the ceremonial torch — mashaal — before flagging off the Seva Jyoti Yatra, the procession component of the Seva Sankalp Abhiyan. The initiative is framed around the BJP's 'Viksit Bharat' (Developed India) vision, and the Patna event was one of its major state-level congregations. Addressing the assembly, Choudhary underscored the party's commitment to the Prime Minister's development agenda, signing off with the rallying note: 'WE WILL DO IT…'
PM Modi's virtual address to the Patna crowd
The gathering at Miller High School also virtually tuned in to PM Modi's address from New Delhi, delivered under the same Viksit Bharat Sankalp Sabha banner. Thousands listened together as the Prime Minister laid out the 'Viksit Bharat' resolve — a vision of a fully developed India — turning a local ground into a live node in a nationwide simultaneous broadcast.
'Modi@25' exhibition inauguration at BJP state office
The day's agenda did not end at Miller High School. CM Choudhary moved to the BJP state office, where he co-inaugurated the 'Modi@25' exhibition alongside Bihar BJP state president Sanjay Saraogi. The exhibition commemorates 25 years of Prime Minister Modi's public life — from his early organisational roles to his tenure as Gujarat's Chief Minister and then as Prime Minister. It is part of the broader party effort to document and project Modi's political journey ahead of a landmark anniversary.
Point of View
CM Choudhary's day was scripted to serve two audiences: local Bihar voters who respond to visible, energetic outreach, and a national BJP machinery keen to keep the 'Viksit Bharat' brand front and centre. Bihar is an electorally pivotal state, and events of this scale at the CM level signal that the party is not treating the state as a settled base but as terrain that must be actively cultivated. The 'WE WILL DO IT' signoff is a small but telling detail — aspirational framing meant to project momentum rather than merely claim credit.
